My eye sight isn't great, but I run my Linux PC on decent screens, one reason I don't have a mobile

On my Iveco Daily's the plate was on the front panel above the radiator generally, I can't swear re the 35.8 as it was my first and a long time ago.
I had been impressed by the separate chassis after welding up loads of rotten Transits, that I bought it at auction without listening to the engine like a beginner and yes the big end on no. 3 had gone

Luckily one of my son in laws had a contact at the local minibus company, so I suddenly had a pile of dead engines to play with, it didn't put me off as after that 35.8swb, I had a 35.10mwb,35.12elwb (23ft) a 35C13 Crew cab tipper pick up and finally the most useful a 35.C13swb van (3.5 tonne gross+tow 3.5 tonne, twin wheel 130Hp and a six speed gearbox) apart from the 35.8 all the rest were 2.8 litre and as I have mentioned before an engine from a 122hp Ducato Maxi 2.8 that went in a boat. So a simple strong engine unlike the later ones in my opinion, though the 35.12elwb did have the later engine and I bought it at auction for just over a grand with receipts from the Main Dealer 30K miles earlier for £5000 on a new 2.3litre engine prior to the parcel company that owned it going bust, that one averaged 28mpg and all the others were 24mpg apart from the crewcab at 21mpg.
I used to lift the gearboxes in on my own, though at 70 I will not be doing that these days
