Dauntless @Steyn are you swapping a redblock into a series Land Rover by any chance? If so, are you documenting the progress anywhere? I'd love to follow along.
Well spotted, that man!
Yes, it will indeed be a Land Rover, if I can find one costing less than a small house. Damned surgeons and stockbrokers have driven the prices of basket-case Series trucks through the stratosphere. The days when I bought an MOT'd SIIA out of a junkyard and drove it for years are long behind us.
If you're interested in a short thread on a Volvo Rover, you can try this one:
Volvo Engine Conversion - Guns and Rovers
I actually got interested when I was given a few photos of his original build 15 years ago, and had a SIII with a seized motor. I tried to track him down without success since then. I just found this thread by accident a week or so ago, and having the engine stored for just this project, I got fired up again. Combines my two great motoring loves: Land Rovers and square Volvos!
