will try and bleed again, must be trapped air - will bleed the nuts off it with a mate - doe

Cylinder is used but in good nick - no obvious leaks and hold firm pedal after a single pump. presure bias valve in line for back brakes - this is mounted vertically - will that matter??? cylinder reservoir is the highest point. TD5 setup so used to back discs - How do you adjust the pushrod on...

your will have no problems mate, will go straight on, but why not ask your local machine shop to open up the valve throats a bit and 3 angle cut the seats - will gain a theoretical 20 Hp min at a small cost - while they are off etc

Hi there guys, after a full rebuild of my 90 I have completely rebuilt my brake system (for the first time) - setup is now discovery 1 axles and discs - copper pipes and hoses - and TD5 pedal box (used - but seems good). After multiple bleeds (3) the brakes still need 1 or two 'pumps' to firm up...

Hi guys, need some help:-) have fitted a whole new brake system to my 90 project, using td5 pedal and cylinder, copper pipes and a rear pressure bias valve etc. have bled it through 3 times, with 2 man method, just a spammer and hose etc but still haven't got a decent peddle! Fluid stream good...

Thanks again guys, would like to keep the carb, so not thinking Mega squirt, but have looked at these 4 barrel throttle body efi kits to go straight onto my manifold. Switching map on the fly sounds like it must be great

Thanks Mate. Must be working then:-) still - its a high end engine, will mega jolt make a noticeable difference, it's obviously more accurate, does anybody else have experience ?

Thanks guys, thAnks for that, the unit I have looks quite warn and am Not sure about it's function, have magnaco leads etc, if the amp didn't work would the ignition fail? How do I know if it's working?

Hi there guys, want some advice. Am running a 5.0 V8 on petrol only – with an electronic dizzy – it also has an ‘RPI Power amp’. Really fancy eventually switching to ‘Megajolt’ – the trigger wheel system – like the idea of mapping etc – am running on an edelbrock carb. Will I notice the...

many thanks guys

Well, not just with the family, would like one for more serious stuff if i am on my own etc - but if I am honest I just plain want one, but i am thinking more and more about a simple soft top when I think of the price. Do you have / own a soft top??

I am lusting after a soft top for my v8 90, no roof on it currently - and want a nice black full hood etc - want to combine with a roll cage - I have enquired about a full int/ext roll cage with top to fit but almost fainted at the prices from P++ and all wheel trim etc (£2400!!!). I know these...

Have read that a 0.086 jet is recommended for a 4.6 RV8 - was wondering what the standard jet is (0.96 on edelbrock website??) - But mine in a 5.0???

Hi Guy's, wander if somebody could help me - am running a 600 CFM edelbrock on my 5.0L rover, and at standard jetting its very rich, pulling nicely but stinking of fuel, had advice from V8Tuner to go for a 600 carb with my stage 3/4 heads and TVR cam - as 500 may run out of steam at high end...

I realise this is a bit predatory - apologies - but if you find the costs uneconomical I am looking for a project defender 90 - will pay cash - hope you are not offended [email protected]

Hi there, I run a TVR 500 on my 90. Very potent. When I acquired the engine (from Andy Race of the TVR tuscan series) I inspected it in the dark, and bought the short block for 1100GBP - thinking 300 BHP drop in. But after a crack test and on inspection it had slipped a liner (TVR engines are...

Got caught exacly the same with my old 110 when fitting a 500!! Made me smile:-) My old man spotted it - its from the kick down for an auto box apparently?? How is it running?

I have put in a 5.0 TVR block. If you can get hold of a used one of these and have it top hat linered this is the best way to top torque and power. I have a 4.0 for sale thats only done 500 miles from a new block if your interested?? Was replaced by 5L - would sell as a stripped or short engine.

Im in / near Daventry Northamptonshire. NN11

Hi there guys, need some help. Have a 90 V8 project in a rolling shell state (with engine). Am beginning to place the wire loom inside but i have little experience with auto electrics, but am giving it a go!:-) Have a new loom from auto sparks (in 4 parts). Have placed the main harness in and...
