yes not bad article, they do a track test and then evaluate the set up and make some recommendations to suspension etc.

It's a bit light on help - largely due to issues with the car from what I can see. Although the advise to stop the car from rusting looks
pretty important - the car is going brown!

Does anyone know what mods need to be done to the chassis for the Rover V8 engine/gearbox to fit?

None! it fits. ive just put one in mine. MK said i would have to cut this and cut that
and i would loose some footwell , rubbish, it fits albeit tight even got it low enough to bring exhausts under chassis rail . the only problem i have
had is the steering rack . Mine is shortened so the colum hits the back of the block but thats easy enough to fix. also have had to mount clutch
master on the top of bulk head thats it nothing major at all.
