I was doing a british v8 conversion and piled up some parts, but sadly have lost steam on the project.

buick 300 with aluminum heads
rover 3.9L from accident vehicle
misc odds and ends for engine (spare block, water pump...)

Asking $1500.00 neg.

Also have a custom magnesium adapter plate and Audi transaxle for mid engine installation...

I'd be interested in the Buick 300 heads and the 3.9 block.  What would be the cost for just those parts?  I'm in Boston, MA so I would need assistance from you with regards to shipping.

thanks,

Zack

OK, everything is sold except the Audi transaxle and the adapter plate to a rover engine.

If anyone is interested in an '88 audi 4000 transaxle and a custom made magnesium adapter plate to bolt to the rover block I am asking $250 obo for both.

James, It would be beneficial to post a picture of the Audi t-axle and adapter. Who made the adapter ? You folks looking to build a superior handling MGB  GT/ etc, might consider this mid engine set-up. Rover under glass ? Cheers, roverman.
