Essential Engine parts, (when converting up to the 4.0 or 4.6 engine)
What is this listing for?
One spacer plate and blanking plate suitable for converting a early Rover V8 to the later stlye 4.0 or 4.6 ltire engine. This is explained further in detail below.
As the leading supplier of brand new 4.0 & 4.6 litre Rover V8 engines, we have found a great number of customers that wish to convert there existing 3.5, 3.9 or 4.2, to the latest cross bolted 4.0 & 4.6 engine (or maybe even larger capacity variants). This in itself is very simple to do as all things with few exceptions will transfer across from your existing rover V8 with minimal & varying levels of issue, non of which are a problem.
To put this into context we must have supplied over a thousand brand new 4.0 or 4.6 engines worldwide for all capacity and vehicle type upgrades and none have offered any real problems.
The following components have been developed by us (not so difficult really) to overcome the two small, but important issues that this conversion always raises.
Crankshaft spacer.
Because the protruding nose of the 4.0 & 4.6 Crankshaft is longer than that of all pre 1994 V8's we have produced this spacer that slips over the nose of the Crank within the pulley-damper & ensures that the crankshaft end-bolt & washer locate's the 'bottom-pulley-damper', by acting as a correcting spacer. Without it the front pulley would have about 2cm's of end-float.
Blanking aluminium disc.
Because the 4.0 & 4.6 Brand new engine would normally have a sensor in the rear of the engine block occupying a hole on the opposite side to the starter motor, about half its diameter. It is required to close off this hole as the sensor is not required on conversion's and its absence leaves a small but gaping hole!! Thus we produce this quite simple machined aluminium disc that fits in the gap and solves the problem without worry
Whatever your V8, If it's a Rover, we have the upgrade for you.
Classic V8's from the 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's, 00's, and still going strong.
Buick, Oldsmobile, Rover P5, P6, MGB GT V8, SD1, Morgan, Marcos, LDV, Land Rover, Range Rover, TVR, Westfield, Dax, Marlin.
You are bidding on a couple of invaluable parts to convert an early pre 1994 engine to the later cross bolted 4.0Lt and 4.6Lt Rover engines as supplied By RPi.
Yet another example of the attention to detail and the trouble we will take to do the job right and beleive me, we only do it this way because its as good for us is it is for you.

Your postage is not the cheapest. Why is this?.

appropriate safe packaging, together with the choice of delivery company, you will see that we will do
all that is possible to ensure, that not only your package arrives on time but in great shape.
We could
make delivery a smidgen cheaper, but no one would ever thank us if
their
purchase, no matter how heavy or fragile, arrived crushed, split,
fragmented, late or even not at all. What's more, insured against any
possible unfortunate event too. Thus our postage quotes represent far
more than
just the cheapest postage possible.(See our other eBay items)
