The V8 Owners Forum -

Hi Tom. Have a look on the Hotrod sites, NSRA is a good one or RodsnSods. Ive been looking for a 350/350 for sometime now and they getr snapped up straight away. The prices on that web link are actually very good for a turn key engine with alloy heads i think. You should expect to pay from £600+ for ...

Tinley Tech all the way for me. Very helpful and always willing to talk.

I aint touched it since before christmas as bought another discovery which was more rotten than i thought, lol. Be back on with van soon as finished Disco.

Cover the postage mate and will bung it in the post for you. Send me your address or post code will do. Thats of you want to but dont feel obliged mate. Its yours if you want it.

I just used a metal rangie classic air box. Its a round one so you will have to make a mount for it but never breaks in event of a backfire. If your local to Consett, Durham, you can have it as i took the metal one off when i sold the disco. Its got a recent airfilter aswell, lol.

I aint a clue about the science and posts above but when i had my V8i Discovery on LPG i was toying with buying one. I bought the magnecore leads which did make a difference but TBH i was sick of RPi pushing and pushing for me to buy a amp. When i asked question about them on various forums the main ...

Any pics of the Rangie? You using it offroad or onroad only? That BB will sure sort your halfshafts out offroad, lol.

Heres some better pics of it out of garage today.

The wheels look well pi$$ed in this but they are actually fairly straight.

Anywho, back axle is in and connected up thanks to the help from the wife. Firstly i set up the axle where i could get access on the scooter and it was level. I set the diff pinion @ 4 degrees as advised as a starter. I aint got the engine to mount with box to get a correct alignment but was told 4 ...

I decided to brackets on today. Started by the wife pulling the axle out from under the van after it was jacked up.

WAS A PICTURE HERE BUT WIFE WANTED ME TO TAKE IT OFF AS IT WAS HER BENDING OVER MOVING THE AXLE. :clap:

Then laid the spirit level along the chassis as i wanted the edge of the ...

As i have my 4 bars thought i would start. Im going to mount the brackets on the outside edge of the chassis rail going forward so they are closer to the wheels but so if i want i can still get 10x15's on the back. We made sure the axle was in the middle and sitting straight. The wife laid a long ...

Got me toys today. I know they are nowt suprising but im excited. Van should be rolling in a few weeks. Not going to rush into starting it as thats when i ***** things up,

Ive got a few pics of van with the front end clamped on. Sorry they are took with my phone as camera batterys were flat. I also have some pics of my new 4 bar brackets. Pics of the front end was the 2nd time i had tacked it in place but 1 1/2" further back to clear the front wings. Still not sure ...

Reet, i decided to kick up fron end so the van sits lower. Heres how i done it.

I measured where i wanted the kick up to be. Obviously had to be engine side of the bulkhead and not to far from the front clip but couldnt have it too close as the lower arms may foul the bottom of the kick up. I ...
