I want to remove the V6 and shoehorn the V8 in its place. I know that the tunnel has to be modded but what else, there is a V8 heater box on ebay, so I presume that is different. Will a BMW M3 rear cradle fit or will I need to source a Rover/MG V8 unit. Any info or pics that you jolly clever chaps could help me with would be greatly appreciated.
Is it the 2v unit if not I think you have to do with out heater etc because the bulkhead has to be removed.......yep cheaper to flog the engine and buy a 260 then S/C it.
