Magnateic Pan brakes have been around for years. But to buy them is very expensive. The inventor has now put a website together with both the history, working models of the hinges and a simplified version for the home builder. Below is a link to the site for those interested. Magnabend...

Now that spring has arrived i'm doing some more work on my P6B...I'm wondering if anyone on here knows why the pump feed line goes around three sides of the engine bay and why the high pressure line from pump to steering box only has a short metal pipe on it and is made up of two different sized...

HEENAN FROUDE HYDRAULIC DYNAMOMETER | eBay Per the title i found this looking for an engine dyno. looks like the units rover built for university teaching. in pretty good order by the pictures...

Has anyone tried to have one made for the P6? I'm looking into it as according to my rough calculations the dynamic weight saving would be around 150 kg as it's a major rotating member. Also looking at the axle shafts.

I finally got around to adjusting up the rear pads on the p6. Right set are fine but the left set is wonky. The discs are straight and the caliper has no rotational movement back to front but it appears to be pointed outward on the mounts as the outer pad its about 5 mil out from the disk at one...

On one of our trips to and from Canberra ferrying Flynn's rover parts home it occuured to us that the laycock overdrive could be attached to the DG150 auto to give a four speed unit (or six if you are really keen) as the DG unit has a lock up top gear. Has any one attempted this?

Now that I have obtained the boot fitting for a Rostyle wheel, I need to get a Rostyle spare to put on it...As I'll be changing the rim to match the others, I can take a wheel in pretty much any condition as long as the centre is reasonably straight and the bolt holes are not worn out. Damage to...

Anyone know of this car? claims they made six. Doors look like original length. ROVER P6 CONVERTIBLE | eBay

Has anyone had any experience in repairing the surface of the screw out piston on the rear brakes? I have a couple that are stuffed with the coating breaking off and rust pitting. I'm thinking of de-rusting them, removing whatever the coating is mechanically and electroplating them with a copper...

Has anyone tried the Mezier electric water pumps that are available for the Rover V8? Add says they pull 7.5 Amps which together with the electric fan would draw about 18 amps or a total power drain of about 225 watts. In theory that is a huge drop on what the engine driven fan and water pump...

some of you are aware i started my P6b for the first time in about ten years a few weeks back. I checked the Trans oil level then and it was at the top line and nice and clean. Later i did a few three point turn type maneuvers around the workshop and the gearbox behaved as it always did...

Anyone have one of these at a lowish price? it is the one with the blue writing on the cover and pictures of both the three thousand five and NADA 3500S?

I'm changing my diff ratio to the lower 3.54:1 and figure the easiest way to adjust the speedo accordingly is to change the angle drive to the 2000 one. I have several but how do I tell which is a 2000 and which is a 3500?

Finally someone has made a label maker for shrink wrap. I just bought Dymo Rhino 4200 tradies Labeller. Not too dear at around $150.00 AUS with 5' lengths of wrap at $40.00 each. New letter labels for my Air Con Pipes Here I come! I just did all the rear lights on the car and it was excellent...

Just a couple of pointers for those whohaven't been through it... The Bolts that secure the drive shafts to the stub axles in the diff are a very particular length. Their length is curtailed by the closeness of the flange to the bearing seal. They are designed to take the tab washer, the thick...

I've got my power windows in the doors, now I need to do the wiring up. last thing is to find out if the overload breaker which is next to the relay, uses the two thick brown wires with the white stripe (might be a green or red wire - I'm colour blind) they look like thats where they go. I can...

Lesson one - DON"T! the Rover panels are a very tightly balanced fit and it is easy to scratch the Duco so they need to be lined up and the doors adjusted etc while in Primer or bare metal. The panels also alter shape when stored so you need to check the flares all lineup correctly before you...

Anyone out there have the internal duct for the air con intake? the one that sits inside the firewall?or even a picture of what it looks like?

I've sent my newly acquired Rostyle wheels off to have them split, rechromed and rewelded but have run into a snag. One of the four was welded together rather than riveted in a manner that means I can't re use the old rim .Which I thought was ok as I wanted to fit new 6" rims to the newly...

I'm hoping someone out there might have a set of P6 Front Spring retainers they don't want? I know the risks of rusty bells but none of mine are rusty and they make the job soooo much simpler and faster Mike
