Where does one get info regarding dropping in a V8 into a 1975 series 3 landy.
The landy has been converted into a self contained motorhome complete with toilet. shower and all the other thing that make the lady passengers happy. However it weighs a ton and the existing 6 cylinder leaves a lot to be desired regarding top speed and economy. I have been told to try and get a clapped out RR and drop the motor and gearbox into the Landy. Is this the way to go or is there a better answer.
