Hi,

[:D] WELCOME BACK [8D]

' Benzo ' on here is doing a BMW V8 install, a M60/62 by the looks of it. Wide engine, which lots of these multi valve V8's tend to be. The oil pump on the BMW engine is in the sump at the front and is chain driven, this can get in the way on certain cars, not sure about our cars. IF you go the BMW route and need any wiring diagrams ect can print them of at work and get them to you if that helps.

This is the install I have always fancied S62B50 E39 M5 engine, fits in a Z8 so should with a large shoe horn fit in a 7 engine bay [:0]

That Dolly is absolutely mental[:p] In between working at work and working on the house i've been removing partitions in the stables to make way for a long but thin 11' x 50' garage. This will just about accomodate a 4 post lift which is turning up on Fri and i can finally start work on the TR7 (who's heard that before?

I hope everyone is well and has managed to lose the xmas belly bulge by now[:D]

Rob.

Welcome back, was wondering where you had been hiding [;)]
The X-mas belly is the least of my worries at the moment with the new project ...
