Custom Cummins Turbo Diesel Defender 110

Exclusive Brembo Brakes Custom Fitted for Defender
January 10, 2020Over the years, we’ve proudly introduced a range of engine options for our custom Land Rover classics that are suitable for the driving needs and performance desires of all our clients.
Today, we’re excited to announce the addition of a new engine offering — the GM 6.2L supercharged LT4 V8 engine. It’s a direct-injection small-block V8 engine that produces 640-horsepower and 630 lb-ft of torque at 6600 RPMs. It is the most powerful engine now offered by E.C.D.
The LT4 was first introduced by GM in 2015 in the Chevy Corvette Z06 and was used until 2019. Currently, the LT4 is used in the Chevy Camaro ZL1 and the Cadillac CTS-V.
The LT4 features an Eaton TVS supercharger capable of producing more than 9 PSI of boost, a cast-aluminum block, forged aluminum pistons, and a forged-steel crankshaft.
We’re excited to be able to offer this engine option for our custom restored Land Rovers. It’s a huge performance upgrade in comparison to the original Rover V8. The only thing to note with the LT4 is that it must be used with premium 93-octane fuel, which could be something to consider when traveling long-range in your custom E.C.D. truck.
