Just to keep myself off the streets and out of trouble, I bought the engine
out of the toasted Rolls-Royce I mentioned a few weeks ago.

Anyone have a manual with torque settings for this engine (one HUGE V-8)?
Outside looks scruffy, but removing a valve cover reveals nothing unusual
inside - and seemingly no internal damage. I want to take it apart,
recondition it, and then sell it as a "long block". Curiosity killed the
cat, or maybe just his wallet, in this case.

Also interested in a source of parts, gaskets, seals, rings, rod and main
bearings, valve seals, the usual rebuild suspects.

(A Bentley for a Rolls? - Couldn't resist!)

Engine is from a 1986 Corniche Convertible, and it is the biggest chunk of
ironmongery I've seen in a long time.

Thank You and Best Regards,
