You're copy is wrong. The Stag did not have this engine. They had a different V8. That had a lot of problems. I believe that the TR-7 engine
is half the Stag V8.

Lot's of overheating problems, etc.

Kind of a cool thing though. Now all I need is the engine. :-)

Shameless bit of self promotion here.  A set of adapters allowing SB Ford
valve covers to be mounted to the BOPR heads.  Saw this in one of the books on
V8 conversions, generated it in CAD, and had a local machine shop cut it with
a CNC machine.

Looking for your thoughts.
