It reminds me of FF no 255, which had the 383 rebuilt by Geoff Hauser, Edelbrock Alloy 383 Six Pack manifold similar to yours, (the Six Pack had vacuum secondaries which I now know were for the Autobox). There are manual gearbox and FF transfer boxes for Range Rovers, but never one for the FF, but it could be done. The FF was modified to have twin coilover shocks at the rear and a massive axle, design done by a suspension specialist, and had a massive hand fabricated header system that went into a 2" or 2.5" collector on each side of the motor. externally the car looked 100% stock. I was forced to sell it on before I could see how bonet clearance worked out. Anyway, there are 383 Six Pack solutions out there for early cars too!
Any more info on this Johnw, so was it your 383 FF what became of it ?
