would love to know who moted this

The place to socialise, and relax, if it doesn't fit into anything below it fits here, so tell us that joke, or share that story of your last off-road escapade, but remember new comers the virtual drinks are on you!

I like the old Rover V8, but in a zook? It'll ruin the balance.
There's three ways of doing things:

The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.

I wouldn't class that as working, it only has rear wheel drive :lol:

It looks like there are a lot of bodges on that truck, what a waste of a perfectly good SJ :bawling: whoever put an MOT on that should be shot! I'd fail it on the spoa perch welding, let alone the engine and transmission install! That transferbox mount in the picture is gonna last 2 seconds with the torque of a V8! I'm suprised it survived the drive to the MOT :shock:

If it can be done properly with a Chevy V8, there's no excuse for screwing it up with a RV8, surely?
1985 SJ413VX (SJ50V) with SPOA, rear disc brakes, 31x10.5R15 Kaiman Malatesta tyres, an MOT and a lot left to do!
