Nice one.

I found that RC padding a bit firm...u might wanna try the bigger spongy stuff from demon or elsewhere.

Has it been on the rollers ?

That looks fantastic. Why didn't TVR produce a road going version in the first plae? (Is someone now going to respond with a picture of a Griff? smile)

Its a bit V8S, a bit Griff and a bit of anything else they had on the day, as usual.

TVR did produce a road going version in the first place but the Griff took a lot more orders so they built that.

The best shaped car TVR ever produced and that looks like a great conversion, well done.

I'm not jealous at all, no, not me wink

not yet got it dynoed as the garage i use was having new tie downs fitted
i was told that the engine was good for about 300bhp
cant decide to bin the pi system and go to carbs or to uprate the pi system
few bits have showed up on test runs which are now fixed . but the gearbox is a bit crunchy untill fully warmed up i am putting this down to the new oil being a bit thicker than the atf that was origanally in there
many thanks hope to get to the tvrcc oulton park track day and possible chatsworth house
