FREE 3.5L Rover V8
scudderfish - 7/9/12 at 10:16 AM

I'm doing an engine swap on my car and I now have the original 3.5L Rover V8 going spare. It's from an 1984 SD1 and it's done around 90,000 miles. The cam looks worn and there is no inlet manifold with it (I'm keeping that). I snapped the head off a mounting bolt so that would need fixing. It made 160bhp on a set of rollers about 500 miles ago. It had new bearing shells and rings about 5000 miles ago. It's drained of oil, but there may be a little coolant in it's recesses. It weighs about 120kgs. Collection only unless you can organise a courier who will bring a pallet. If I were to put it back in a car I'd want to at least replace the cam and all the seals.

Regards,
Dave

The engine has now gone to live again in a trike
