Title: rover v8 trike owners or builders
Post by: dracken1 on July 03, 2008, 10:05:15 AM
a small request. we have a 4.6 litre rover v8 trike in the shop . it was fitted with a bw35 auto box. which has eaten itself. it is not a viable repair job due to the amount of damage.

my question is would a later bw65 box fit?

i know it will fit the engine but what about the length?

trike has a jag irs fitted with a 14" long propshaft.

any info would be a great help

Hi Wynne.
No idea what box I've got on my Rover 3 & a half. Check the "Manky's Pop" thread in Hotrod Tech. If it's the box you're asking about I'll go & measure it.
