Are there any document on how this was, what was need, changes required, etc?  I
still plan on doing the Rover V-8 conversion to an old and decrepid Alpine, and
since the Rear end will have to be changed, why not go fo r the best?  I don't
want to have to reinvent the wheel if this has already been done..Are any photos
available?
