Hi guys, I have been thinking that i need more power in my 413, And my m8 has a v8 range rover and i love the sound it makes. I know a v8 has been done but it would be a tight fit, so i'd like to fit a 2.8 from a capri. Has this been done before? how much work is involved? what gearbox would i use? If anyone has any links to sites where this has been done could they please post them? cheers guys

^^^^ He's right about the weight. The RV8 is lighter than the Ford V6. When there were lots of scrap Granadas about the V6 was a good choice, but there are loads of rust Rangies now...so.... :)
