Well, after a year and a half's hard work the MGB GT V8 is finally finished.
MOT next saturday then it's on the road

Congratulations, Tony.  She looks beautiful.

good  job, now enjoy it!

Wow - I've never seen a better looking small block Chevy!

;o)


I have a pretty good idea "how it was done" - but I still hope you'll soon submit a <a href="http://www.britishv8.org/British-V8-How-To-Contribute.htm">How It Was Done</a> article.

Hi Curtis, It's not a chevy, It's a good old rover 3.5 v8 with a few " extra" bits
 ; )

Orange engine paint, chrome valve covers, spark plug wires routed to behind air cleaner... you can't fool me!

Here's a clue

What's the purpose of the distributor then?

To drive the oil pump

Ok, makes sense.  Should have thought of that myself!

Yeah, You can get Chevy or Ford valve cover adapters for the Buick/Rover. There was a guy selling them on EBay. Nice looking car Tony but, you know you're never really finished,LOL.

Love the dash. Good job, now get to lowering it!

Cheers,

Hi,
Have you used billet pullies on the water pump (and crank), if so did you get them here in the UK
