Time to make a coffee and go ponder if these two would play nicely together without the need to buy a conversion kit,

I will update you on my findings later :thumbs:

@andybp I thought I was older actually - when I was 19 centurion was a rank not a tank :lol:

I'm the big 50 this year :scare: 

 

Is that a rover V8 you are adapting for the Capri ???

actually young man I'm 53 in march :lol:

and yes a rover v8 into capri with twin 3" cherry bombs as an exhaust no big surprise I used to get pulled a lot in that car :lol: broke my hand twice in one week putting the engine in that by hand of course I'm paying for such stupidity now

Can you make your thread titles more self explanatory please. I seem to frequently stumble upon major build threads of yours by accident which means I have probably missed 847 crazy car builds of yours which have been going on and finished before I can even do 1.

@andybp  Twice!!! Ouch!!!!

So sense does not come with age then!! Can I call you pops now I know you are that much older than me :lol:

 

@evilscorp - Noted - I'll start a proper build thread for the conversion in the correct place as well :thumbs:

 

 

 

In my defence I was only 19 then the fact that I've also broken every finger and my thumb on that hand since individually I have no excuse for :shrug:

Yes you can call me pops but not daddy as that would seem wrong :lol:

Ouch I mean I hope these breaks were accidental but seems you have done a fair bit of damage to that hand over time.

Yea all accidental working on cars except the thumb which I owe to the grip on an SLR and an idiot officer falling over me in the dark :angry:
