Thread: V8 Engine Numbers

44D 4.0 R.R efi 8.13:1 CR 1994 onwards

OK - thanks - a 4.0 or a 4.6??

Cheers

Garry

Sorry I guess you didn't get to see the rest of the DB it's a 4.0

I have done some searches and they indicate 4.0 engine numbers should start with 42D not 44D.

Likewise the 4.6s start with 46D or 48D depending on CR. 4.2 litres start with 40D and the 3.9s 35-38D

All so confusing.

All Rover V8 Engine Numbers

PS is this engine in fact a P76 4.4 engine?? 44D??

If you know the answer why ask the question?

P76 engines were a numeric only number starting 440..., 441... etc

Thanks Diana, but I don't know the answer that is the problem - non of my research shows a 44D in the Rover line up - I appreciate your lists do have it listed. The list I put up, as well as others did not have the 44D listed.

I have since concluded that the P78 V8 does start with 44 but does not seem to have the D in it (research was look at p76 ads with engine numbers listed).

Thanks for your help.

Cheers

Yes the early P76 were 440... then 441...

I had engines in both sequences (or is it merely a continuation of the same sequence?)

P76 engine prefixes were 44xx style with the xx being numerals depending on items fitted on the production line, ie 4400 was manual no a/c or p/s, up to 4416 for auto a/c p/s Executives I believe. As there were only about 20 000 P76's they didn't run out of 4 digit engine numbers (after the 44xx prefix). I have most of the prefixes in a genuine manual somewhere if anyone is interested. A bloke in WA tabulated all the data from P76 production he could find as the factory destroyed their records in 1974-5.
