Hello all,
i have a SD1 v8 in my series one comp safari based landy - this is fuelled via a 3.9 injection system all married up to a Borg Warner 3 speed auto (Remember me scratchydom?i'm the guy that could'ent load pictures! - no wonder that i'm clueless regards engines then eh! - i am however a very good roofer :)
After fitting some 235 85 16's the box which has been reworked to change into top gear somewhat higher than normal had to work even harder than normal to achieve top gear, and as such so did the engine! - i now have a slight "rattling" noise from the left hand rocker cover (looking from front) and a slight hiss on turn over/start up - can anybody relate to this? - i live in North Essex so if anyone knows any "v8 strokers" i would be very happy to hear!
 
Hi Ladies & Gentlemen - i have solved the problem ( so for those 152 folks that viewed and are as clueless as me - or could not be bothered to help) read and learn!? It is a gasket that had blown - related to my diagnosis? - god only knows but I'm sure further thrashing on the 235x85x16s will reveal all!
Sturg.
