Rover SD1 V8 & Gearbox

I have a complete Rover 3.5 V8, the only problem is that it is completely stripped down. All parts have been cleaned and the block has been painted. Heads were bead blasted.
The original engine was an auto so it needs a flywheel and clutch.

Also have a recon 5 speed Rover box including V8 bell housing

£100 ono for the lot before it goes to the dreaded flea bay

Yes, but the bits are in Salisbury.

I'm home on leave next week and I'm trying to get some space in the garage, so I can hide from SWMBO and a long list of jobs.

Still too far for me but much nearer than I feared.

Good luck with the sale.

There is a starter motor and alternator included. Carbs, inlet manifold are all there but no exhaust manifolds though as I was intending to use fabricated ones.

Basically I need to get the lot out of the garage. I bought it for a Cobra but switched to a Locost to go racing with my son.

Hope this is of some use, make me an offer !!

She Who Must Be Obeyed. I think it came from the TV series 'Rumpole of the Bailey' but wouldn't swear to it.

Mart.
