Stage 1 V8

As far as the total Stage 1 production, are there any educated guesses out there? 2-3000?

Also, what kind of options are considered atttractive and rare?

I have mouting holes for a bonnet mounted spare tire.

Anybody know the total number of Stage 1's that were produced? Throughout the different years? Eg. 1984?

I have read that there were 29 88" V8's built. How about 109's?

Are County Stage 1's rare?

My serial # is 177708. Anybody have a later one?

You have a lotta new parts. So, I'm guessing it had 300K+ kms on it when you pulled it apart?.. What kind of wear indications did you see? Still got the cross-hatching in the cylinders? Lip? Cam lobes? Main bearings? Con-rods?

Yeah, all these odometers only go to the ten thousandths - so we have to guess (or look at service records, etc.) how many times it's been around.

400.000 kms is not bad; do you know what kind of motor work that has been done? Heads, crank, cams, etc?

..On the clock of your Stagie?

Let's do metric, please. Mine's @ about 170.000 km. How much more can one expect?

Do push-ups regularly and you'll get there.

How about MSD?

OK, I signed up on the website. That's a Rover 215 specific board, right? The EFI swap is certainly not my main priority right now, but it's something that's been on my mind for a while. I've heard good things about Megasquirt, and it looks cool, but it sounds like a lot of extra work to me. Do you ...

Doh, I feel so dumb! Of course you needed the EFI manifold for the LPG system..

Wait... so you have an EFI manifold with a carb stuck to it??

Nice work!

Does the front fenders come off easily? Was the EFI swap hard?

To me, it actually looks like the old exhaust manifolds have more flow? Why not make your own?

My Landie has been sitting for a couple years with not much done to it (I went to school overseas). So, I thought I'd at least start scavenging for parts. I wanna ditch the Edelbrock carb for fuel injection. I'm thinking just yank out the whole system from a 3.9 Rangie? Our how about the later 4.0 a...
