Has anyone used a Rover V8 ?
Cheers
Not in a kit but not much heavier than a pinto, low power considering it's a V8, unless you spend mega bucks but unbelievable torque from the
word go.

Not a cheap engine, buy it for £50 then spend loads rebuilding!
LT77 box probably shagged, R380's command strong money.
Other than for the sound there are better engines for a 7 in my opinion.
Theres a 3.9 V8 going in my Jago with a 4 speed auto... should be nice and lively

i think the previous comment is correct, there probably are mroe mdoern engine that can deliver better power for less money. but. the v8 for me
delivers more than enough for a seven. and the best bit is that it sounds amazing. always loved that noise and to own one in my car is still grin
inducing several years on just when it starts up

Is that a 2wd auto, rare beast if it is, do you know what it came out of?
