hmmm a V8 from Rover... sounds great! Twin Carb 3.5?Efi 3.5? Efi 3.9? Efi 4.0?Efi 4.2?Efi 4.6? You can also install a charger
I'd like to install in my Syncro de 200Tdi from Rover, best Tdi engine x far, but is quite big so it'd be difficult...

If it's old enough to have been stuffed into a lightweight then it's gonna be a 3.5...... the only question is low or high compression?
