Has anyone seen a 760 converted from V6 to V8 ?

Hi has anyone seen a 760 Converted from V6 to V8 ? or know of a website which shows info on it? I'm in the process of undertaking such a marathon. Charlotte

If you obtain a copy of Technical Driver, 110 (October 2001) there is a very good article by our very skilled lady Kay Campbell who lives at John O' Groats. You may be able to download the article from our Technical Driver resource on the website. If you cannot access the pages let me know and I will send you a copy of the article. She successfully fitted a Rover V8 into a 740. I am sure that she will be willing to share her secrets with you. She tuned her V8 to give around 230bhp which made her 740 "shift like the proverbial". There is also a book or two on the subject available from IPD ( ). All the best and please keep me informed with your progress, Peter. :car-smiley-031:

Conversion V6 to V8 

Hi I've found the appropraite pages, however, it's asking for a password/username: To access these use the username and password from the bottom of page 3 of Driver magazine issue 145 Of course I don't have that magazine. If you could send me a copy it would be helpful thanks. Charlotte

I will try and send you a copy in the next few days Charlotte. Send me your e-mail address and I will attach information in reply. All the best, Peter. :car-smiley-031:

Charlotte, these links might be useful. Which V8 are you planning to use? I have many links for Rover V8, send a pm if you need them. But why not try a Chevy LS1. 380bhp standard, reliable and not too dear! Regards John
