Hi
I think the V8 is a great idea.
I am going down the track of using a Rover V8 as well. It was suggested to me that perhaps I should use 50x25x1.6 for the top and bottom rails as this will add significant strength to the chassis, and give a little more height to fit the V8 into. In New Zealand we have to go through a low volume vehicle certification process, and the certifiers are generally very helpful and provide little gems like this.
Go for the V8
Cheers
Nigel
