Got a -83 Mk2 motor home wants more power. Witch 2,5 is a good choice ?

I’m an old farmer in my world runs engine’s on diesel. I think some TD is the choice for me, but which?

Found a complet Mk 5 -96 105hp? With a MT 75 gearbox. The intresting part will be the EPIC.

Lots of questions , many thoughts circulating in my old head. Writing in English is not easy for me. But it’s fun and a hop I learn something.
Back too the question. The reasons for a EPIC to Bosch conversion. Is the EPIC pump bad? Or is the problem the electrical part? The most common set up on aTD from a mk3, 4 or 5 is the EPIC system? Is it a bad idea to put a engine with EPIC in my mk2.

I think this will be a ok vehicle for donating engine and gearbox for my old mk2 motor home, it's a -96 85ps TD. Found it on the backyard at the local plumber. He parks it there 12 year’s ago. There’s some parts missing from the engine starter and turbo and everything else between the cylinder head the exhaust pipe.

I used this old FORD tractor to take the beauty home to the farm.
