Wanted: v8 engine

Aug 28, 2003 5 Replies

Still trying to source Rover 3.5 v8 as winter rebuild project.



Condition is unimportant, as its going to get rebuilt anyway. However being near the North West, UK is as I'll have to pick up in my LR.



Looking in the region of 100 - 150 UKP, maybe more if all ancillaries are present.



Okay?

also try uk.rec.cars.classic (I think it is)

when I was looking, had several offers from defunct P6s etc.

find an early P6 or P5B one and you get a 10.5:1 compression ratio...

I keep looking, most of them seem to be in the South though.

Cost a fortune and take a weekend to get there and back at 40mph! Thanks for the advice though.

Hi Simon,

I'll have one available in Leeds in a couple of weeks (but I could probably get it over to Manchester if necessary).

I will want to keep the starter, alternator and crank pulley.

e-mail me if you're interested.

Nick
