looking to do a project with another car

 

other than a rover 3.5 V8 what other V8's are there that are on the small side and are not stupid money lol

the one i'm looking at the ls1/ls6, 5.7L

or the ls2 6.0L

to be honest m8 im looking at a max of 3.5, if its the same size as a 3.5 and a bigger CC then great but it needs to be a small v8.

why would you want a 3.5 rover in? Most powerful one made was 190bhp, it will be slow as hell.

 

Small block chevy, ala MantaV8 ;) In fact save yourself the hassle and just buy his lol.

like i said m8 it has to be a small as poss, not sure how the rover 1 compares to the chevvy 1 in size??

 

if its smaller then great, is it?

Well Darren has a 351ci and I can tell you it fits in a lot easier than a stock twinturbo! You could hold a small dance in his engine bay with that thing!

From that I'd assume it's not going in a Z

no m8

 

hence the small v8

Only advatage of the rover mate is weight,other than that,Chevy or Ford small block.Rover is a expensive engine to rebuild/tune and as no power!! :o

Chevy is most common/cheap but the Ford is a narrower 'V'-HTH! ;)

ok m8 cheers

 

the small block chevvy is smaller than the rover?

 

is that the 5.7 litre one?

 

what sort of cash do these go for?

Look here mate.....
