A customer sent their Mitsubishi L200 to Luke Dale and his team at Diesel Pump UK for an engine swap. There the truck received a Mercedes 2.5 L OM605 inline-five connected to the factory transmission thanks to DPUK adapter kit. The engine’s output increased to 180 horsepower and 300 lb-ft of torque thanks to a bigger turbocharger and DPUK 7.5 mm mechanical pump. The team also installed their throttle cable kit and a new stainless exhaust system.

Only 180hp from a 605 and 7.5mm pump? I get that from my 617 with an adjusted stock pump!
Its the standard turbo so limited. I know this as this is my truck he did the conversion on. And as I was the customer it’s nice to know my truck is being used to promote his business. Would i use him again? Not a chance… I’m in the process of redoing the conversion as what he and his team did wasn’t quite what id hoped for with the money i spent on it…
What were the issues you had? I’m looking to do the same conversion.
What flywheel did you use?
My daily is a 04 MK GLS K77 4M40T 4×4
I need more HP to play with & after 3 years in the build I want to do engine transplant
Much involved to fit the mercedes engine?
What sort of $$$$$
Hi Wayne. I recommend contacting Diesel Pump UK directly for an estimate.
