Project v8

Hi all,
Want to put a 3.5 v8 in my series 2a I’m looking at using it mainly on road. But want to know experiences of the best driveline to use, Which gearbox, which transfer box and which diffs? And then of course where best to source from?
Thanks in advance

You want it in that swb in your avi?

Go big or go home.

4.6 top hatted block, performance heads & headers, couple that up to a ZF4 & LT230, get the LT 2wd converted, diffs & half shafts, Rover with HD 3.5 ring and pinions & HD shafts, leave drive members std as they're your fusible link, dirt cheap & fast to replace (5x 17mm bolts & a gasket).

Are you 95% road or 99% road & maybe bump the curb?

I ask as you could scrap the V8 & grab a Jag donor & do a full V12 & box installation, rip out the front diff & shafts, put a cover plate on there to save weight & go rear wheel drive easy enough, the Belgian army used to run a fleet of 2wd series many moons ago.

Got some piccies for us to oggle?
