Stage 1 V8

The fuel filter or the fuel pump, my 75 Rr was having similar symptoms when the fuel pump packed in, finally gave up completely just after. They have the same pump.

The wire size is 3.125mm and spacing is between 28 + 30mm, not the most accurate manufacture. The previous one I sold to switzerland went on a 110.

Without comparing dimensions on the chassis drawings I would say it should be a straightforward swap. The biggest differences are likely to be the steering and the fuel tanks. The steering would only need a 110 column to be a complete 110 system, I know of them being fitted to series to give powerst...

easiest way to check is to take all the plugs out and hold a finger over no1 plug hole, turn the engine over by hand, (use the fan belt is easiest unless you have a helper) until you feel the compression in no1, then use a screwdriver carefully in the plug hole to feel when the piston gets to the to...

real easy to turn it by the pulley/ fanbelt when you have all the plugs out

I have two here, one has been sandblasted ready for painting other is original army green. The green one is in very good condition. Downside is it will cost 30GBP by the time you get it posted to you.

Electric fans dont work as well when trying to blow through a rad as when sucking. When racing V8s we found our temp dropped greatly when moving the fans behind the rad. I believe the early range rover water pump and fan will fit the easiest. Firemanshort if you are still looking for an oil cooler a...

Stage1s dont break that easily. The weakest part is the front axles, but with the detuned engine they are pretty safe. There are two LT77 gearboxes in rangies, the early one called longstick has the gearlever closer to the bellhousing with the transfer lever behind it, the later one (short stick) ha...

It is easiest to use the kit such as zeus, I looked at using the RR/ defender discs and calipers but it is not a simple job. Easier to buy a 110 like I have.

the six small bolts hold the pulleys onto the damper. The crank bolt is a large bolt, about 30mm I think, if you remove the pulleys it will be easier to get at.

I have been looking at the MSD Buick dizzy, would have to use an old style oil pump though, but I have a real steel high volume oil pump which is the old style so that might be the go for me.

there was a new one on trade me last week went for $12NZ. I will check see if I can get one, I have two main grilles here still. Should only cost about 10gbp to send airmail.

My old stage one had an army 24v split charge system using lucas 4BD blocking diodes, I have saved them to use on my RR, will be using them in parallel as per the 24v system, connected as shown in the Haynes RR manual.

mounts do line up, I had one sitting in my spare chassis, the 88 rangie does have a cable speedo, but i dont know if the calibration is correct, but drive gears are interchangeable in the lt230.

someone in NZ may be able to get you one, I just sold all my stage 1 parts and let several go, might be able to get one back.
