For those who have asked, I have a K&N number for an air filter that fits into the original air cleaner assembly as fitted to the 1970 Rover 3500S (P6,V8). This may also fit other models with the sam

I've heard from a couple of sources that GM is trying to buy the rights for the 215/3-litre V8 back from Rover and that Rover doesn't want to sell. Can anyone point me to some hard info on this? Is i

Well, having done a lot of book learning, and figuring that if some of YOU guys can take an engine apart and successfully reassemble it, I've taken the plunge. Basically, I've taken it down to what I

6. Noise in my V8 (score: 1)
Author: "Glen Wilson" <rstca@hemmings.com>
Date: Tue, 17 Oct 2000 09:45:55 -0400
My SD1 started making a noise yesterday. I'm guessing it is a malfunctioning lifter. It is a mostly regular noise, although it does fade away from time to time. Sounds like it is coming from under t

I'm getting close to the point where I will need to remove the pulley from the front end of the crankshaft on my SD1 engine. The manual says to remove the bolt and withdraw the pully, but it looks l

Thanks for the suggestions re the crankshaft pulley. I used the rope in the cylinder both valves closed system. The bolt actually came free quite easily, and the pulley slid right off. No violence wh

I have my SD1 V8 disassembled as far as I plan on taking it. It's essentially a short block now. There is virtually no sludge in the valley area, but there is a thin dark brown coating of old oil in

10. Rover V8 Oil Pressure (score: 1)

Pardon me if I'm jumping into this thread in the middle and have missed something, but 8-10 psi oil pressure at idle doesn't sound normal to me. All of my Rover V8s have idled at just around 30 psi

One small correction. The back pressure is not constant as engine speed rises. It is this back pressure that is registering on your gauge and is a result of trying to stuff the oil through the variou

Based on what people have said, I would say you shouldn't worry. The top end is fine and the bottom end sounds fine to me at this point. A friend in San Antonio, Texas (where it gets hot) whom I tru
