The V8 Fergie is back on Youtube with an all new video. Thanks to everyone who put the last video up to over 75,000 views and 4.5 stars! The engine is the Rover 3528cc V8.
hi, v8 poweredmajor, I have only had mine up to about 4,000 rpm which is what it is doing in the video. I was not too concerned about the gearbox handling the power but was a bit worried about the revs. Yours looks like a bit of an animal mine is the 9:35 compression block, 3.9 cam and K&Ns, about 150 bhp. Is yours around 200?
Good inspiration to remove all the slop from your steering!

Its a rover (buick) v8, required an an adapter plate and spigot mod, with a dummy steel sump to support the front axle as it is an alloy block.
