(1/1)

JIM 2B:
Anyone out there done this before? my six pot has to go and i have a good V8 with a conversion plate and a 1ton box ready to go...
 :)
Im looking for any pics of a V8 in a series especialy the near side exhaust header onto chassie rail  :?  any pics would be of a great help..

Especialy if its in a 2b.. :) this is the only thing that may be a problem for me and if i can sort it before fitting to speed things up would be great.. :wink:

Big Rich:

JIM 2B:
thanks ive just had a look at your pics it looks great, would you be able to get a pic into engine bay at exhaust headers for me??

I also noticed that its a coiler did you change the chassie?
How dose it drive with V8 ? what gearbox are you running?

Big Rich:
Hi

The gearbox is Range Rover 4 speed Manual. The chassis has had modifications Not sure but may have been changed. It had the V8 in when i bought it.

The cab sits higher than normal so as to have room for the engine.

I will take the pics as soon as I get him back.
