Lot's of work on the wedge this weekend (engine pics)!

Had a fantastic weekend's worth of work on the 350i the past couple of days.
Have got all the brakes stripped off, engine coolant hoses stripped off, but most significantly, have all the EFI system (bar the ECU) stripped off for a freshen up and rebuild:







Wonderful to see those big ports on the Vitesse heads. Makes a change from all the Land Rover V8's I've been around!

Great to see those guts, those ports are pretty big, are you gonna give them a quick polish? Good to see the TVR logo is supposed to be on one side only, and not missing on mine

Asked my old man to check the cam for me, as he's built and owned loads of RV8s.
It appears they're in cracking shape, very shiny pointy lobes with plenty of lift!

It'll be getting a full oil and fluids change before it even sees the road! Had some flushing solution in it for the past few months so that everytime it's been started it's been helping to clean the oil galleries

I'm not going to get involved with stripping the heads off yet. I'd like to get the car back on the road this month so am leaving mods and upgrades to only the parts which NEED replacing!

Know what you mean about the TVR logo! I think it's left off the passenger side as it's largely obscured by the plenum/hoses etc!
