Putting a Mercedes OM605 engine into my Land Rover Defender - Part 2

Part 2 in the series of videos documenting the process of converting my 1987 Land Rover 110 (Defender) to run a Mercedes OM605 engine. In this video, I talk about manufacturing an adaptor plate to fit a Holset HE221W turbo to the Mercedes exhaust manifold, along with modifying the engine mounts to fit the OM605 engine, and why I chose the OM605 instead of the OM606 engine.
