I can remember chatting to some Stag owners at a car show a few years
ago (before the DeLorean came along....), I can remember them saying
that rather then use the 'tried and tested' Buick/Rover V8 (as found
in the Rover P5B and P6 3500) they decided to cobble together their
own V8 engine. Overheating was a major problem and owners who are
still running the original Triumph engine fitted uprated (kenlowe)
fans, others just threw away the Triumph lump and fitted the Rover one
instead. I guess the only other problem, as with any 1970's car is
gonna be the good old tin worm!
Hope this helps,
Claire
