Are you talking about the engine in the pic or Steve's Green's Tina power-plant?

The former I was sure was 3.5 while did not Steve end up with a 6L wildcat engine + the NOS of course?

I think Steves car progressed through many engine capacities and configorations.
I have a video tape of a years racing in the RVDRA (Rover V8 Drag Racing Asociation) and the opening clip is of Steve in the old Mk1 at Shakey, running a low 10 second 1/4 at about 140 then popping a core plug dumping water under 1 rear tyre. The car hooks to the right and barrel rolls into the field. Dreadfull accident destroyed thast car but Steve walked away.

Sometimes I think the Tuscan can look a little awkward around the front, but I love this picture taken by Pacific Studios of the orange one. You can see how the shape evolved from the Griffith.

Yeh very pleased with it - taken a little while not to mention cost to get it that way but I'm not unique in the TVR world in that respect!

I went for a visit when at my mam and dads and glanced out the landing window and thought it was a view you didn't see every day so took the pic posted....

What I love about these cars is that I derive almost as much pleasure from looking at them, when not driving them!
