Speed Six Rebuild: Power 4.3 or 4.5?
Discussion
Well, I have collected the car from TVR Power after mapping, results below...
As expected the engine feels very, very strong and smooth. It's scarily easy to break traction especially with road conditions like they are at the moment, so I'm looking forward to some warmer (and hopefully dryer) weather later this week so I can properly open her up.
Fwiw this car has a big bore exhaust the ACT airbox with trumpets.
And possibly some more ponies to come after road testing, too...
Merry Christmas!

Congratulations JCP !
That looks very healthy - especially the torque curve, which seems to have more lbs/ft at 2500rpm than a standard 4.0L at 4000 rpm, and then just goes BANG above 3500rpm, with no need to rev past 6500 by the looks of things. I bet it feels just awesome ??!!
Are they at the wheels or calculated flywheel figures by the way ??
Thanks - all figures at the wheels.That looks very healthy - especially the torque curve, which seems to have more lbs/ft at 2500rpm than a standard 4.0L at 4000 rpm, and then just goes BANG above 3500rpm, with no need to rev past 6500 by the looks of things. I bet it feels just awesome ??!!
