What does the SVA wants from me regarding the engine
I bought a Rover V8 some time ago; I never saw the donorcar, but it was a SD1, I was told.
What does the SVA wants from me when I present the car?
The V8 has double Strombergs with spaghetti waterpipes, it doesnot run very well on this set I heard, but thats another point.

A legitimate engine number with proof of age.

However a large number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.

Thx Pat
a) the engine number is stamped on the case: is that enough
b) proof of age: how should I know
Could you help me with that.
By the way :is there a list from Rover somewhere with gives information about the car age ?

I managed to find out the registration of my donor through LandRover traceability I just have the fax no. but not sure what you do with an SD1, as

Rimmer Brothres used to have a table of engine numbers on their web site but the information seems to have vanished as I can no longer find the table
just refrences to it?
I LL find my copy later and post the numbers for sd1 engines -
Mr SVA will require more proof than this and I was planning to get in touch with him closer to the time to see what he requires as My ebgine is from
an 88 landrover.

The table is also printed in their V8 catalogue.

Rover V8 and the SVA
Thx for the replies guys, but I have still not the answer.
Rover V8 / not a Landrover engine !
engine number: 11A70537
above it: CR 9 351
.. and it was sold in the Netherlands. I can't check those numbers and the central Rover dealer is out of business.
any ideas left ??
They are very welcome !

According to the Rimmer catalogue 11A engines were fitted from 1976 to 1987 in SD1 automatics

Thx for help Snuggs; till 1987 taht's important
Automatic is correct..
I already have another flywheel and gearbox.
Another question:
The HTcoil Lucas 32C5( + and -) has some sort of electronic resistance box and that goes somewhere with 3 threads . I think to some starter key.
Do you know the conection of those threads ?
Good luck with your Luego Viento/lots of space !
