Owners Comments:

My old and now sadly departed campervan. It was my first foray into diesel tuning and I used it as my daily runabout as well as for touring holidays. It clocked up nearly a quarter of a million miles with its fair share of problems, including many cambelts and headgaskets but that is another story. Originally it started off life as a NASP diesel which I then converted to a turbo diesel and then started tweaking it. As standard the engine had about 80bhp and I improved this a lot to about 100bhp. I never put it on the rolling road sadly but it did go very well and from a standing start would out accelerate my 127bhp rover 600 until about 40mph where its severe lack of aerodynamics came into play. I ported the cylinder head which I’ll try to find some pictures of. I couldn’t bear to be without my campervan so I bought another van to convert into a campervan and a tuned turbo diesel one at that! Stay tuned for some high power maestro diesel smoke (hopefully!).
