The MGB GTV8 of the 1970s and, more recently, the MGB RV8 roadster demonstrated how the Rover V8 engine could transform one of the best-loved British sports cars into an accomplished grand tourer with phenomenal road performance.

Original GTV8s are rare and the RV8 is very expensive, but with the aid of this book you'll have all the information you need to build a Rover V8-powered MGB roadster or GT.

No matter whether you intend to convert an existing four-cylinder car or build a car based on a donor car and a new Heritage bodyshell, this book contains all the advice you need to build the car of your dreams at the smallest possible cost.

This new edition contains additional information on sourcing the required partsóor their equivalentsóin the USA.
