Does anyone know where there is a good drawing of the external dimensions of the RV8? Have found the basic sizes but am after a more detailed drawing.
Cheers

I have been trying for years to get a blueprint of the rover V8 but with no luck. Real steel claim to have it but wouldn't let me see it! I enquired with british motor heritage and they didn't think they had it but couldn't be sure and suggested I come up to have a look!! Its possible that our best chance is to look to the US for a Blueprint for the 215 Buick engine. If you find it and want to share the costs in return for a copy then let me know.

Fully dressed engine dimensions here. Just scroll down the page a bit
