Thanks

It went to 4.6L, not counting any special "iceberg" versions of 5.2L that were injected.
Injection used in rangey, SD1(vitesse) some say the sd1 v8S was injected but it defo wasn't that was on std su carbs, land rovers also injected some.

rover sd1, range rover and discovery had injection lumps. the RR had 3.5, 3.9, 4.0 (updated 3.9), 4.2 and 4.6 capacities. the disco i believe had the 3.5, 3.9 and 4.0.

later RR with the 4.2 and 4.6 were also available with DIS injection systems too
