I purchased a v8 for my series 2 (1958) End of last year . I was informed by the seller it was an 3.5 v8 out of a car from around 1976 ?. I've just stripped it down and the numbers I've found don't seem right . On the head numbers are 36D04692A . And on the block it's 9E691 wyf HTC1800. can...

Sorry I've been away and only just read your message. My engine is completely striped down at moment so photo would be no good to you . Sorry.

Spot on thank you

Ok I will have to do some more research many thanks .

I want to convert my series 2 to power steering which rack would do the job best ? . It has a rover v8 in it which has a pump fitted so it's just the rack I need . Many thanks.

Hi all. Any one around the Wiltshire area done a v8 conversion on a series? . I'm going to do one on a series 2 and would love to have a look at one and discuss any prob I might come across like what diffs and drive shafts to use . Many thanks .

That's why I need to have a look at one that's all ready done . My series is stripped right down at mo so may be best to fit engine and gear box then work around it when refitting body ?

That's a shame. I'm away for two weeks. If you've not got it out by The 24th I will pop up with my engine crane and give you a hand .

Where abouts are you?.And when are you thinking of doing it? . Many thanks.
