Which engine is it?

What is it?

An engine.

[Phantom]

Its a Rover SD1.

Sorry Matt, I wanted to ask what it was but thought someone would say 'an engine' so that somehow makes it OK for me to say it.

That's why I went back in and edited the post. Soon as I read it, I knew what some smartarse would reply with.

I seem to remember buying one for a Rover P6 for my kit car when I needed a short one. Try somewhere like Rimmerbros or RPI

TVR? I wish Rod. No its just a 3.5, because the 7.6ltr twin holly Chevy big block and turbo 400 gearbox I had lined up after careful measuring just aint gonna fit without spaceframing the front end. So I'll keep that for my next project.

As far as I am aware the early P6 engines ie. pre 1976 had the shorter water pump.
