I see Amazon has 3 Rover engine books. Two by David Hardcastle and one by Rover.
Hardcastles books are "The Rover V-8 Engine" and "Tuning Rover V-8 Engines".
The other is the Rover V-8 Overhaul Manual by British Leyland. I paged thru the Leyland effort and it didn't seem to be much better than the big manual.

Anyone have any advice on which to get or not get.
I'm rebuilding my 3.9 -planning on stage one heads, erson cam.

Thanks,
eric

I have both the Hardcastle books. I think you would find both useful. Curiously, the first has a useful table of camshaft specs which is not in the Tuning book, which is where it should be, to my mind. They list lots of tuning parts, suppliers etc, some in UK, some in USA.
