I'm looking at different engine swaps. One that has been suggested by several people has been a rover V8/buick 215. Does anyone have one in their 914? What is involved with this besides what would be with a chevy V8? Does anyone have any websites with someone documenting a rover swap?

Stick with the SBC. It is the same amount of work as the alum Buick motor (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif) and MUCH easier to find parts for at every generic parts house.
