My first wedge, anyone know it lol ;-)

[gmw9666]

Had plenty of TVR's but never had a wedge before........until now that is

Even the sun was out for my 2 hour faultless drive home from Lancashire to Birmingham

Tony and Liam, I promise I'll take care of the old girl and give her some winter fettle time :-)

Now that is one Wedge i SHOULD of bought!..A pure monster with a classic early shape..Enjoy...Ziga

[gmw9666]

It not a garage queen, has a lovely patina and I've some jobs to do like sort the headlight, drooping headling etc

Nothing major just OMG the engine is amazing. Only tentatively touched the throttle and its like stepping on a mine!!!!

Glad you had a good run home Glen (didnt take long! ) The Baton is now firmly in your hands to give the Wee Beastie a new lease of life, I can see you you beoming an expert with a Multi-meter in the near future sorting out the electrical gremlins (such are the joys of owning a Wedge!) the Dyno graph is an old one, last time on the rollers it was just short of 280 at the fly and 330lbs of torque and with a remap you may get a few more! All the best and may your miles be smiles!

I have seen this and heard it and its a belting machine, was surprised it took so long to sell as its a hell of a thing, enjoy as I am sure you will.

[gmw9666]

Yup going to pop it down to dyno torque in brum for a wee fettle

It's one of your old video's tony but it still sounds just as epic, scared a few folk half to death as I arrived in my town lol

Oh what a beauty well done you

Apologies if I'm being a bit dim here - this is an RV8 in a 280 body? And how do you get the plenum to sit in the opposite direction to the usual orientation?

Indeed, 3.5 RV8

its rotated around and modified to accomadate the supercharger.

There is definitely something about the S1 wedge.

Looks like a proper fun car - congrats!

Nice car, go easy with those tyres on in the winter.
They need a bit of heat in them to work correctly.

I was very steady on the drive back, thank goodness it stayed dry

The rears are pretty much gone so likey will replace those with normal road toyo's 225 50 15 vs the current 235 R888 rears

[wedgemaniac456]

Well done,fantastic wedge that.Enjoy

[stlol]

Perfect excuse to buy another set of wheels and use the 888's for summer / track days

[wedgeman]

Great car - the supercharger was bespoke fitted by Tony in the White Elephant shed.

Enjoy!
