I live near DC, in Dayton, MD. and work in Reston, VA. Believe me, there is nothing i would have liked better than to be out and about in the snow ('93 RR) but I was forced homebound by 44" of snow in just over three days. I honestly spent four days from morning to night on my tractor pushing snow around for myself and my neighbors. When I ran out of diesel, it took the better part of four hours to make it two miles to a neighbor's home (and back) for more. I will say that I enjoyed every minute of that week.

From: NADdMD@aol.com Date: Mon, 16 Dec 1996 13:29:42 -0500 Subject: Wobbly Wheel Hi all, Just like to publicly thank Chris Stevens for the help this weekend on the rover. He stopped by so we could put new shocks on his and ended up fixing mine as well. I have noticed some slight pulsations in the brake pedal for a couple of weeks, but it was intermittent and didn't seem to affect braking. I figured I'd look into it when I did the swivel balls at Christmas. However, on Sunday, we planned on replacing the half shafts in the rear and jacked up one side to avoid having to drain the diff. Needless to say, the wheel had significant wobble in it. The lug nuts were all tight, so we went about trouble shooting it. Turns out the hub had loosened up significantly. After retightening the hub down (on both sides) and replacing the half axles, it runs well again with no pulsations on braking. Best of all, the inside oil seal didn't get trashed (no oil on the inside of the wheel) Live and learn Nate NADdMD@aol.com ------------------------------[ <- Message 16 -> end | Table of Contents | <- Digest 961217 -> Archive Index | <- Browser -> ]

It had New Jersey plates and alot Phish decals on the bumper. I think it is the first D-90 I have seen in town. I didn't get a chance to talk to the driver but I figured he was a Phish-head in the area for a concert at Lake Placid. If you are on the list I would like to say your D-90 was nice looking execpt for the all decals on the bumper (non LR). I like the color, it is the same as my 1973 Series III swb. Did any one on the list recently sell a LR in Texas to an individual in Massena,NY?

Well, if you're taking the manifold off take all the other fixings off and you should be able to pull the manifold away from the head -giving you more clearance to back out the stud some more, or even to rotate the manifold so as to give you more space behind that stud.

Might work in a RR or > Bill Adams Bill, You're probably right, but the weight isn't an insurmountable problem. Advertised weight of the GM v-8 is around 300 kg or 650 lbs, probably 150 to 200 lbs more than the LR diesel. ( and less than the Cummins 4 BT I am trying to get into my project). Torque figure for the GM is 290 and hp is 160. obviously too much for standard series drivetrain, but within the range of the newer petrol Rover v-8's. I think this conversion is intended for Defender/ Disco/ RR vehicles, though I would guess a Series coiler conversion with the later drivetrain would be a good candidate, especially since the engine would be 10 inches to the rear of the RR position over the axle. I'm sure it would be a tricky proposition but mileage in the upper 20's with power figures like that sounds interesting, and it's one of the few advertised conversion possibilities that might be less expensive in the States than in England. I have also heard that some of the reliabilty problems of the GM diesel have been solved in the 6.5L version. I was hoping someone had done this and could say whether it was a great idea or a bad mistake. Just curious and planning the next one.

From: AKBLACKLEY@aol.com Date: Mon, 16 Dec 1996 18:09:59 -0500 Subject: Re: more.Projection responses.. Jan: I am using a rebuilt Delco 80 Amp. It is a little bigger than the 37 to 60 amp models) I'll get back to you with the model number on the unit. I was getting 14 mpg or thereabouts with the CD-175s, but I know I was running fairly rich (as proved by the E-check folks here. You need to get a pass or a waiver here before you can either renew your plates or sell a vehicle. :( ). On the freeway it would approach 18 or so at sustained 65 mph. My early tuning on the Projection was very rich, I was only getting about 9 mpg at best, although I was also lead footin' too. I am now running closed loop since Saturday so its too soon to tell, but I think it will be much better. The Isky cam appears to deliver power at a higher peak than the stock lazy cam. I think the stock long duration cam peaked at about 2500 rpm, wereas now it appears to peak at over 3000 rpm. The '81 to 83 RR LT-95 had a slight overdrive ratio in 4th to match the stock cam and to stretch the mpg that the factory could report, so now I need to stay in 3rd longer in some situations. When I install a tach I'll be able to tell better. The Isky cam is about as docile from idle as the stock was, which is good. Once the revs get up it comes on much stronger. Other Projection tips: The fuel pressure is back to the 13 psi recommended by Holley. I am going to leave a small fuel pressure gauge installed in the supply line. When pressure drop off it will be a waring to check the filters. I thought idle was too rich intially so I lowered the pressure. This was not necessary and it badly hurt part throttle running. With the 13 psi it runs great. The LED on the O2 box tells you if you are near a 14:1 stoiciometric (sp?) ideal ratio by flashing. It adjusts the voltage and current feedbacks to the ECU to keep close to this ratio for all throttle openings below 2/3rd. I also installed a heater hose adaptor plate on the back on the TBI body. I had to order this direct from Holey. Cost $10. (I'll post that part # too)This heats the throttle plate area to avoid icing. We've had some cold, wet weather here of late and no problems with such. I am using a 14" Edelbrock air cleaner, which has the greatest available drop below the flange of the TBI and so gives max clearance. Even still the wing nut as made an impression on the bonnet insulation (but not the bonnet) and clears the drip channel on the bulkhead by 1/2 inch. The overall height from the top of the intake manifold to the top of the air cleaner is about the same a the distance to the tippity top of the dashpots of the old setup. Cheers.

Some weeks ago, when I changed the front diff pinion seal, I checked the breathers of the diffs, to find that they were both sealed (the little bb was corroded). I took them out, dissambled the upper part of the breather, and left it out, so I don't have to replace the seal so soon again. :-) I've heard that it's a nice modification to connect the breather vent holes to tubes to act as a snorkels, so it vents out above. I have some questions about how this could be done: 1. What type of tubing should I use ? 2. Can I run it joined (side by side, touching) to the brake hydraulic piping (as they also leave the diffs to the frame) ? 3. Where should they end ? 4. What should be in the end ? Just the pipe turned down, some kind of filter ? Thanks for the help!

So far it looks good & possible. I am currently considering using an automatic Trans to soften the impact on the drive train. The 350 GM trans can be mad to fit & would add alot of strength. I know of Willy's 4X4 with a 350 engine & trans adapter to the transfer case. If anyone can give me input please do. Presently the engine looks like it's exhaust goes from the drivers side to the passanger side before exiting down just behind the engine.

It was a friend of mine--you all know him so we'll just call him 'Towball'-- wanting to know if I'd seen the ROAV's 'The Gearbox' yet. "Nope, haven't checked the mail, not expecting any checks until late this week" was my response. "Well there's a cool picture of your Rover in it!" replied 'Mr. You got it, I'll tow it--anywhere on Earth'. "Hang on, let me see if it's arrived." Sure enough, 'The Gearbox' was sitting in the pile of mail accumulated outside my door, and on page six was a picture of my Rover. Ordinarily, this would be a cause for celebration, sort of a proud parent thing. Not this time. This picture looks like something from the cover of 'Really-Big-and-Stupid Tires Monthly' -- front wheels flying off the ground as the beast crests a hill at excessive, non-tread lightly,speeds. You know, kind of like the image that all of us who were at the Mid-Atlantic have of boy racer 'Towball' and his sidekick 'Young, Single and Conservative' sailing over the tank trap at light speed--having already received a DQ for excessive speed, wheelspin and downright anti-social driving. Worse still for me is the caption--"How it's [underlined]not[/U] done: the last obstacle on the trials course." Captured for my viewing pleasure by Jim Wolf. A wonderful feeling for someone who prides himself in driving sanely and smoothly offroad--and most of all for being non-damaging to his Rover. Well it's my Rover all right--the PIAA foglights and the roll cage are a dead giveaway. But to quote John Fogerty, "It ain't me" at the wheel. Let's all give credit where credit is due though. The driver, following the advice that I so often spew, that "the best race car in the World is someone else's", is none other than our own list-meister, Bill Caloccia. Bill had borrowed my pride and joy for a gentle little spin around the track. (And somehow managed to mangle the gas cap in the process.) At least I now know why my bushings have suddenly given up the ghost, and thanks to Jim Wolf, I know whom to, urr, *bill* for the damage. ;-) Seriously, another fine effort by Sandy Grice, Jim Wolf, and all of the photographers who contributed to this issue of 'The Gearbox'.

I have had bad experiences with that spray in foam that comes in a tin, but around here there are companies that spray airframes etc. It is a rubbery type of foam that isn't hydroscopic and it doesn't turn to dust when exposed to UV.

Rob, There's a guy in New Jersey whose name escapes me that has done exactly what you are planning. He also was known for putting 215 Buicks in. I believe he was physically challenged in som way and need the autobox to help him enjoy Roverdom more fully. Perhaps this is enough info that someone will remember this fellow and you can get in touch for details. As I recall, it was a good setup. Ian Ashcroft (See Adverts in LROI or LRW) makes an adapter to bolt a GM Turbo 350 auto to the stock 2A transfer case and the box is plenty strong for a V6. Good Luck!
