When the engine/box is fitted you can take some of your arty pics

Hi Steve, Have been looking around. Like the look of the non -runner 350 wedge advertised on Classified by Driven Image. Any thoughts?

No worries bud, likely to be in Leicester at the time, but it gives me an excuse to come up north with the missus

Seems to be going well! Good stuff.

Hi Steve, any progress on the M? Do you intend to re-reg the M or hold on to the existing reg no. I would be interested in the old reg.

Steve,
I just got some new rear hubs that fit into the existing carrier. Quaife units and a much better design than the original. Steve Ried (Gamekeeper) has some in stock I think.

Team work

a wonderful thing

[stainless_steve]

Just a quick update.
Had a couple of spare hours today so i thought i would fit the gearbox





Will be in the garage in the morning to get the engine and box positioned perfectly,then take measurements for the mounts.

I get a warm feeling knowing that there are still TVR owners with a dominant insanity gene...

Hi Steve,

I'd be interested in what plans you have for the rear end upgrade.

As previously mentioned in the Classics section, I'll be getting stuck into a Tamiar restoration and upgrade to a SBF in the near future, so I'll be watching this tread with interest over the coming months.

Regards

Antony

Hi Antony,
Body will be off by Feb,the rear end is next on the long list of things to do
I will probably use the Jag diff but the rest will need to be upgraded.
I may be using nitrous for some 1/4 mile action along with some sticky rubber,so i need it all to be strong.
Will let you know what i go for when i have it fully worked out.

Steve

Thanks Steve

Keep us posted on progress.....
