Dave,
What year is your Rover engine? Size? Where did you get it? Injection/carburetion, etc.?? Gearbox?
Just preparing for some time in the future. My Essex V6 is of the older style and parts are hard to come by. Hopefully it will last a while, but putting on 10k + miles/year is inviting a rebuild or a new engine some day.
Thanks,
Don Lattimer

have finally figured out my digital camera or at least my 12 year
daughter did , so I will post some decent pics soon.
