RE: SER1 Rover 60 2L motor

HI Alyn,

I picked up the Rover 60 motor yesterday and some questions came to mind, 
perhaps you can help.

1- How did you set up the throttle linkage
2- Does the large air clener/silencer fit under the Land Rover bonnett?
3 - is it possible to install the sender unit for Land Rover the water 
temperature / oil pressure guage?
4 - How did you set up the choke?

TYA

Jeremy

I am in the process of making the Rover 60 head conversion. It has been
quite an interesting journey so far and much advice gathered on the way. As
stated it was a common conversion some time back and would apparently add
another 10 hp to the output. Allegedly the economy could also improve.
Many of the aluminium heads are now quite corroded internally. Along with
pushrods, cylinder head bolts, carburettor and numerous other things being
different.
The head casting includes the inlet manifold-I was rather impressed.
