FINDHORN CARS 3.9 EFi Rover V8
This is the last of the Classic Range Rover engines. It is a turn the key and go engine – and go and Go and GO!!
In many ways it is the easiest V8 to install. Yes, there is loads of wiring and the inlet casting need a bit of attention and a new plenum chamber is required, but with luck the engine won’t be too old and tired. If it is a rebuild is not out of the question and as with the MGB B series all the parts are readily available, including the camshaft which is as well since the original is quite likely to have politely delivered its peakier parts into the sump!!
Once the 3.9 is installed you will have a simply wonderful engine for your Findhorn. All the virtues of the 3.5 are there but more so. She will burble one second and roar the next at your beck and call. She is well mannered and happy at very low revs, exactly as one would expect of an engine tuned for a two ton Range Rover, except that the Findhorn is half the weight.

There is only so much I can say in extolling the virtues of this engine in a Findhorn car. You need to come and have a test drive!!
Oh and yes it is possible to have more power, in much the same way that if you have a Bentley, it is possible to have a Rolls!!
