    The power steering pump looks like being the biggest issue at this stage
    I think i still have the powersteering pump and brackets to suit Range Rover from when i had a Holden V8 in my rover, it uses the rover pump.
    Will have a look for you if your interested.

    So true, add to this the 40 mm or so the engine is offset to the passanger side of the car, and you have a bit of a squeeze fitting the exhaust manifold in there.

    NOT TRUE a 350 chev is a 90 degree V8!, the narrowest thing you will fit in the hole is a FORD windsor that is still a 90 degree but with wedged (restricted) exhaust port heads, if your interested in a engine conversion let me know as i have done one or two (read MORE than a Few)
