Breather hoses and flame traps

Post by LandyV8 »

Does anyone have a plan of the breather pipes and flame traps I need for my V8. The engine is from a SD1 but rocker covers are from a Classic Range Rover. They have a short metal pipe on each one. The carbs are SU, the original SD1 ones. I have no pipes at all or flame traps. Ebay seems to have plenty but need to know which ones I need.

You need to speak to Jim at JRV8 (I think thats where he's at) he is very helpfull and will tell you you all you need to know. Plus he can suplly you with what you need.
I had a similar problem with the V8 in my Landy (twas all piped wrong) sent him some pictures and straight away he knew the solution. Spoke with him on the phone, he told me loads of usefull info regarding RV8's and solved my problem, suppled the parts along with a drawing and an explanation as to how to plumb it up.
Great bloke. There may be a link on this site somewhere to Jims site.
If theres a harder way to do it I'll find it!
