 Subject: V8 engine specifications
|
| Message: I'd like to rebuild the engine in my car but am having difficulty getting basic information such as torque specs, clearances and part sizes. I quite frankly am up to building an engine and would rather not have to go through a pricey 3rd party to do so. Is there a manual or some other source of nitty-gritty information about the engine's internals available? Thank you. | |

| Raokman 3/29/2002 20:10:18 | RE: V8 engine specifications | Message: That's a right friendly response. Thanks. I'm talking a 1984 engine from a LAGONDA that has been parted out. Have no idea about chassis number. My location is Central Illinois (and I know about the guy in St. Louis and I don't want to deal with him). |

I suggest you direct particular requests on items of engine specification(s) to the Heritage Department of the Factory or the V8 Vantage site, who may be able to help you. Both site addresses are on my Links page. Can you tell me your engine number? I am interested in finding out about the car it came from. Thanks |

Is there a manual that can tell me if I will need a counter-rotating shaft to smooth things out at this angle? Godspeed. Sincerely, Phil Russell |
