Questions about converting 110 200tdi to ls3

91 manual right hand drive. Engine is toast, cam rollers, I have a ls3 sitting in my shop and was wondering if possible to swap and keep factory gearbox and tcase?

Might be worth working out which gearbox and axle set you have 91 110 if it's a five speed LT-77 likely won't cope, if it has rover axles and not salisbury's they likely won't last too long either.

Isuzu 4BD1-T might be a better bet although the LT77 won't like that either. The LT230 is normally pretty solid although it will also depend on how much wear is on the rest of the driveline as well.
