Rover V6 help
Hi guys, not locost related but as close as possible.
As my Indy is tucked away from the weather I have got back onto my long term project, a rover V6/audi box rear engine Renault 5. Having mounted the
engine and sorting the various problems out like gear linkages and such I was wandering if anyone on here has this engine in their tintop? There isn’t
a Haynes for this car but I have managed to get an ebay workshop Manuel which does help in some areas. However, I can’t id some of the pipes on the
engine or lack of pipes.
The engine is a Rover 2.5 V6 ZS. But the ZT is the same engine I think. I have taken the air con off and remade a pulley for the belt. What I need is
some photos of the engine with the plastic cover off, what I need are:
1, which is the brake master servo vacuum pipe.
2, fuel in and out
3, heater water pipes
4, expansion bottle pipe work
5, general close ups of bits in the engine bay.
If anyone is local and would let my video myself having a butchers under their bonnet would be even better.
Help guys, last year all I did was play with the indy and I now have the time to get as much done as possible before summer is here again.
Thanks.
Andy

Not sure if it will help with all the things you want but I have a factory manual for the KV6 engine in electronic format!

Hi, i cut the front end off a reno to make the suspension turrets up, re used a front subframe modded to house the new engine. Lots of welding with
tube to hold it all together and some laser cut rear mounts to fit the chassis rails and thats it so far.
Just uploading a few pics into my profile.
