    Early V8 Oil Filter Adaptor

    While looking at Youtube videos on the Rover V8 I came across a video where a guy is putting an early Rover V8 into a MGB. While talking about the timing cover he talks about a swivel type oil filter adaptor - he indicates that they were on the old Buick V8 but the one he has is on a Rover V8.

    Has anyone used these and any ideas where I might get one.

    Thanks

    Garry

    Could be the timing cover off a Leyland P76 V8. I believe the timing covers may have been interchangeable . Worth further investigation.

    G`day ,

    D&D Fabrications is the same as 215 Aluminum V8 .

    Don`t know of any local sellers of their stuff , just the swivel part was $135 US from their list , you`re vid is also showing the later taller gears adaptor .

    If you search either you`ll find a pdf cat with prices and gear .

    Looks like it adds another place for a Rover to leak oil , but good idea for those TR7/ MGB V8 conversions.
