To Lar & All,
You should be able to order the Hardcastle "Tuning" book on-line. A quick
search of Amazon.Com's site by ISBN number (I have the book) produced the
following:
"Tuning Rover V8 Engines :
How to Get the Best Performance for Road and Competition Use"
by David Hardcastle
Our Price: $34.95
Availability: This title usually ships within 2-3 days.
Hardcover (January 1994)
Haynes Pubns; ISBN: 0854299335
Dimensions (in inches): 0.61 x 10.89 x 8.39
Another book that may be of help (depending on your donor car) is:
"Haynes: Rover 3500 V8 Owners Workshop Manual, 1976-1984"
ISBN: 0 85696 833 1
This Manual covers all Rover 3500 Models with 5-door (hatchback) body
3500, 3500SE, V8S, Vanden Plas and Vitesse
3528 cc (215 cu in) V8 carburettor and fuel injection engines
I grabbed that one of the Rover manual while I was stationed in Great Britain
and thinking of buying an engine from a Rover SD1 for a project install in a
1972 Mk1 Capri (don't ask).
Good Luck
Dave
