No need to use a 50th rad. I used a D Turbo rad on mine. It’s run for 4 years just fine and includes an engine oil cooler/warmer element if you have the pipework. Part no. NTC6168.

It should be Portofino red, on Discoveries and similar ange Range Rovers it was called Arrow Red and Corallin Red.

Just looked it up and it’s code CUF 390. https://rimmerbros.com/Item--i-RTC5728 ...

Great progress.

Couple of thoughts. Have you identified the ECU as a 14 cux? Just that the sensors on the engine are more likely to be GEMS.

Also it looks like you’re missing the front near ...
