following on from darrens power figures an update on reliability, i'm just putting back together mikes(itsallyellow) engine which has needed nothing replaced after a year of hard racing!tvr started it, apm/tvrpower refined it into a viable package that will work with 4.2 or 4.5 induction,if we can't break it racing then it's tough enough for anyone!

looking forward to seeing the numbers of mikes engine, im convinced hs exhaust is worth bhp so should break 500hp? are you sending it down to emerald for comparison ?

hi joo's i'm sure darrens would have broke 500 without the missfire but he's running higher cr than mike, figures were close between them anyway but with the new gt format i think reliablty is the key but as i've said with 0 wear we may lean on it a bit!
