The V8 Owners Forum -

Wanted to post a message and then saw a bolt size tread already here...

Do any of you know the thread sizes of these two?
I want to blank these off but need to know which sizes so I can buy the bolts.



Thanks !

I will leave the std fpr and just upgrade the injectors. The fuel rail will be able to coop with the "extra" fuel? Problem is that I need to pass the emission tests. What I don't understand yet is when my engine will be producing lets say: 310 = 24.2lb/h 320 = 25lb/h 330 = 25.7lb/h how wil...

Nice. Thanks both!

I'm going to stick with the std FPR then.

Nice website by the way Adam! I have been reading it for most of the evening.
I even felt excited when I watched the video of your first start!!

http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a182/dedoo/FPR_Replacement.jpg I noticed this picture on a website from adamnreeves a member from here also building a kitcar with rover engine. Can someone tell me what he (or maybe Adam himself :) used to replace the fuel pressure regulator with, what it is calle...

Yeah, injectors I was thinking about as well although some others here suggested to stick with the lucas green ones as they should be able to coop with the 320/ 330bhp I'm guessing the engine will produce eventually. Just up the pressure a bit was the idea. That's why I wanted to add another fuel re...

Hey guys, I'm building a rover engine for my kitcar project and bought a act carbon plenum to fit my 45mm inlet. I'm going to use a DTA pro8 ECU. have Merlin heads and I'm using a piper 285i cam. and have a JE dry sump set up I was browsing ebay just a few minutes ago for a fitting TB and found thes...

I'm expecting between 300 and 310 bhp. It's btw a RV8. Which I should have mentioned in my previous post. Calculating with .5 BSFC as its a naturally aspirated engine is a good start or should I bring this number down? with 0.8 duty cycle 05 BSFC and 310 bhp would be 24lbs/hr right? would chevy inje...

DTA pro8

Hey guys please excuse my ignorance but I need an injector upgrade and I'm not sure what will fit or not.

I just went to ebay... and found thse

Ford blue top Injectors

will this fit or do I need to search for something completely different.

I figured as much. Again, anything that looks to good to be true usually never is...

It's been a while since I posted this message but I still wanted to thank you for the pictures. I sent my front cover to John Eales and he sent me back just one like pictured above.

Thanks guys. I think I just went for looks instead of thinking it over. Your are right. Besides that it still would be a horror to fit under my bonnet. The problem I have is that I don't want to saw any holes in my bonnet and the "normal" plenum doesn't fit the way it is fabricated. the ot...

What is the exact difference between these and the ones RPI sells. RPI charges 155 for what seems like the same stuff... I know RPI charges way more than it's worth for just about anything but almost 3 times for this... It almost makes me wonder the first are some cheap crappy ones... any thoughts?

Hey guy's Anyone which tb's they use on their tripple throttle setup? I think they use the single Jenvey 48/ 60's... but I'm not sure. I want to make it myself and hopefully save me some money... And besides that I will use it for my DAX and I do not have enough space under my bonnet so I have to ch...

Hey guy's I'm new here so first let me introduce myself. My name is Danny, 40 years old and I recently bought a DAX Rush, lotus seven replica which I completely stripped. I'm in the process of completely rebuilding it and I am currently working on rebuilding the rover v8 crossbolted engine which I w...
