they complain of num legs,light head,and palpitations .
It gets to a point where once you have got it running right, is it realy worth going through more hassle to grab more power ..!

A cure to your problem would be fit a carb to your engine ,it would be setup and raedy to go in a few hours and run sweet ,then you can set your heart on the Ford engine .

“If we go back to history, the second Merdeka Millennium Endurance race in 2001 was won by a TVR Chimaera. In fact, in the first year itself, TVR was unfortunate to finish second overall.
“So, in the TVR Chimaera machine that our drivers would be using in this year’s race, it had the track record that it has the capability to last the grueling 12 hours of non-stop racing and the power to be among the front-runners,†he said in his speech.
With a top speed of up to 260 kilometers per hour, the lightweight 980-kg racing machine has an engine capacity 400bhp. Their challenge in the fifth edition of the Merdeka Millennium Endurance race would be carried by an experienced drivers’ line-up of Datuk Vincent Leong, Asrul Azam Ali and Rocky Siow behind the wheel.

In all seriousness, I would love that as a removable one piece hardtop.
What would people pay, £1,250.00 at a guess, I would.

I'd pay that, and would really really like one
It'd be an interesting process selling it to myself but I think I could be tempted too ...... would just want to find a way to create a tonneau cover too.

As I said they factory in malayasia had a few hardtops and would sell then a couple of years back, only reason I declined was that I sold my car... would just want to find a way to create a tonneau cover too.

I would have thought a one piece roof would be a real PITA to fit and store whereas Steve's solution is the best of both worlds.
Having seen the work Steve put into the development of these I'd suggest anyone thinging of making their own would be advised to forget it and just buy one of his and if you really want a one piece work out some way of glassing the two seperate parts together in situ.
