The new Rover V8 in my MGB - Starting for the first time
So, after a year or so I have finaly inserted a new V8 in my MGB. This video show the very first (and successful) attempt at starting the new engine. After 7 years on the road, the original engine's block cracked 1 month before I retired and moved to Lyme Regis in July 2007. I've never performed anything major like this before, so this was a big and anxious moment.

Rover P6 V8 Acceleration WOW!!
Getting from minor road to major with a tight clutch. Sounds impresive - did'nt help child's car sickness though!
According to the chap driving behind us we produced a minor plume of smoke from the tyres - so can that be classed as a burnout ?)
The Rover V8 engine has been fitted to many great vehicles over 30 years - TVR, Landrover, even LDV Sherpa ambulances and Police vans!
There is another video on youtube that shows an old Ferguson tractor with Rover V8 engine fitted!! Not original equipment I would guess
