Long time no speak - how is everyone?

Hope that all is good

New year new project - Once my garage extension is completed and the garage outfitted to how I want it, then new locost project (3rd time lucky maybe after allsorts of problems........). Donor car is my track car BMW E36 with a rover v8 engine - should be good once its started as I really enjoyed my last projects

Blast from the past indeed - I have the facilities to do almost all the jobs I need now from pipe bending to heavy lifting - a lot of investment in tools over the past few months

Best thing is that I have the hardest part to aquire already - LT77 gearbox from an SD1 and RV8 that runs with no problems

Altho I might change the LT77 in favour of a 6 speed BMW cogger

'tho I'm a fan of the R V8, wouldn't a BMW V8 have been a better, more powerful option?

Oh, and hello. Again

Now then Joel - All is good thanking you, yourself?


Simon - The engine that was in the E36 originally was the 1.9 16v lump, head gasket failure prompted me to drop another engine in, and RV8's are ten a penny thesedays
