I was into Rover P6Bs during the '90s, and picked up quite a few aluminum 215/3.5 V8s. Those 215 aluminums aren't bad little engines, and were very popular in small hotrods and boats for a number of years. Plenty of go-faster parts are still available for them. If anyone on the left coast is needing BOP 215 parts, I still have a few here for sale or trade; Buick/Pontiac, Olds (slightly different block, and different heads on Olds version), and Rover 3.5s, early rope seal and later SD1. Will swap for good bike stuff, and I'll give more than you bargain for.. They need to find a new home.
