Hi folks,

You may have already seen my thread in the Chimaera forum, but I though I'd open it up to all of the TVR brains smile

What are the differences between a standard RV8 and the one in my 1998 450 Chimaera, specifically when it comes to heads and the top of the engine?

The reason for asking is that I am trying to figure out if the Typhoon camshaft from Real Steel will go straight into my car without any extra work. To be able to fit it to a RV8 you need double valve springs and some other work and I am getting conflicting stories as to if the work was done to the later Chimps confused

Thanks guys and gals smile
