That\'s been doing the rounds for awhile - think it was at Japshow about 2 years ago?

I had a V8 in a cab once but soon got rid of it, sold the engine and box for about £200 in the end. Only got the car for £300 (it was scrapped) The engine looks like an early SD1 lump and still sought after. The conversion is very simple and fits really nice, even using the SD gearbox its all the right dimensions and length. Almost too perfect.

rover (Buick) V8, FAIL. One of the worst V8\'s going, only good quality is its not too heavy. Hole in bonnet, FAIL.
