The belt drive engine injector pump should be 1mm lift with the dial after the csd is disabled then set at 0.5 mm TDC .
I hope you get it sorted out I don't know anything about the Landy discoveries I once had a old Landover series 1 or 2 about 37 years ago with 4cyl petrol engine and ended up putting a Holden 186s 6cyl conversion in it went well until I got up to the gulf country engine would over heat every 20 minutes on salt pans.

Re: 4JG2T will not start after install
ok, I'll install the new belt this week once it arrives and time it accordingly. Even the last two motors I assembled, with the same belt, had no trouble starting?? a bit out of time in relation to 6000ft Alt I imagine but at least it started..
I did install a new high efficiency fuel filter (3 microns) with a universal housing and the new lift pump; pressure regulator and check valve included. It's pretty much the same set up on most all US diesel motors, Cummins, Duramax etc. The stream of fuel looks steady, no air bubbles.
As for the Land Rover, there isn't much left of her but the shell and brakes, Ha. Even those I upgraded and added line lockers since the Isuzu transmission doesn't support the LR E-brake system utilized from transfer case. BUT, I would not do this type of conversion again simply because the drive train. Specifically the rear diff, It does not line up well with the output shaft of the Isuzu Auto gearbox, which is more centered. The solution, have a new rear end/axel housing fabricated for $5000.00.. eesh. Thanks again for you input SD! will keep you updated.
