I've gone and brought myself a 3.9 EFI for a wopping £27 it turns over by hand but will be taking both heads off and have a peak inside. I've brought a set of SU carbs and manifold for £20 and spent another budget busting £28 on a full set of gaskets for both the lump and carbs. My best find though is a LPG front kit that suits both carbs and injection for £74 so just a tank to find. As for the gear box the TRANSIT mt75 bell housing clears the v8 fly wheel so just a small amount triming to do so that the starter clears and fab up an adapter plate. Failing that can you run a gearbox at 5-7' on the wonk?

Doh, I have re-read the post/thread....
I would have a V8 bell housing here off a Land Rover LT77, maybe easier to convert that to fit the MT?? Or, there are a few SD1 boxes on the bay, which should fit straight onto yer V8 ( I would have rear block rings if yer V8 doesnt have).... The SU's are the better carbs to have, the Strombergs are crap... I'd recommend Lumination to take care of the sparks, alot better than the standard dizzy set up with points... I take its the gas set up is a ring feed rather than the mutipoint?? I might have some of the pipework to fit the SU intakes.... Bertie.

I have a pair of SU carbs on the correct manifold that may need rejetting for use on a 3.9 but the gas rings are easy to get of for the carbs. The dizzy I'm going for is the type that has the amplifier on the side same as the 1.6 CVH so just two wires to get a spark. I like things very simple as me and little black boxes don't mix.
