Bought this for a side project that is just never going to happen. Other parts will be necessary for the conversion but these are the big bits. We will provide Mark's installation manual via a pdf file. Any other questions need to be directed to Mark's.

Mark's claims this adapter covers all 4 and 5 speed Rover transmissions, no exceptions.

"Conversion from a Rover V8 to a Chev V8 engine, to suit:
  • County - 4 & 5-speed manual transmission
  • Defender - 4 & 5-speed manual transmission
  • Discovery - 4 & 5-speed manual transmission
  • Range Rover - 4 & 5-speed manual transmission"

That's the only 4 speed V8 the factory offered.
Stronger box than the 5 speeds if a bit agricultural.
Works well if you can find an overdrive.
