Chevy v8 cut outs / suppliers / scrappies
Looking at changing the rover for an LS series engine and was wondering if anyone in the uk hold stock of such things ? Ebay is quite barren of the them , thank god
So thats where it went !
Hi
Does it have to be a unit for rebuild? just this lot will give you a werrenty
http://shop.partsworldperformance.com/
Otherwise there must be monaros turning up in scrap yards by now.
Or go onto Autotrader and buy a whole monaro, they are under 5K for a used one,

Pull the engine box and Diff out and you still have a stack of usefull bits for any project. . .like big brakes, propshaft to shorten, ECU included, wheels you can flog on ebay you could probably even get money for the glass!
Best regards
Mike

There's a guy called Gary - known as "Raving" on Pistonheads who breaks Monaros:

There is an ebay seller who seems to keep stock of the 5.3 engines ( although cant seem to find anything just now )
This is a different seller though, and an iron block ( alloy head ) unit

A lot of Monaros are auto, as are VXR8's
The Holley EFI system can control both engine and transmission as far as I know, if you were looking to use an aftermarket ecu
If Gary/Raving cant help, maybe try Craig at Dynotorque in Birmingham, he does a lot of conversions
Of course another cheapish option would be the old Lexus LS400. You'd buy a complete car for under £1k with a superb engine and box.
