I have seen a couple of rover v8 to type 9 bellhousings either on ebay or the v8 forum but they arnt cheep. I have also been told by several people not to go down that route because the type 9 wont be able to handle all the extra torque!

In the end i have decided to go with a lt77 gearbox from a tr7 as the 5th gear is taller and is actually an overdrive gear. cheap too, only cost £47 for the gearbox and it bolts onto the sd1 bellhousing with no problems.
