I have decided to change my next build direction from a v8 single seater to a two seater jag powered beast.
So I have a 4.6 rover engine with ported heads, 228 camshaft and heavy duty valve springs, this is then cobbled to an Audi transaxle which drops into my frame.
I have not touched any of this for a year as the frame distorted a little with the heat from welding, I then just lost interest.
The engine needs a new front cover, its has been converted to a distributor setup, it does however come with a twin plenum top, not the correct item but something I made up, Jag injectors etc.
This engine came out of a landrover I raced, it was very powerful, I also have a spare set of pistons which it will come with.
The gearbox has a RV8 adapator welded to it, modified auto bits and bobs to bolt up to audi flywheel and clutch... will it work, cannot tell you as I have never run it up.
Its all very grubby now as has sat around, anyway the whole lot £400, you collect.
Regards Mark
