This is specifically for a 400 - see www.tvrpower.co.uk/upgrades.php

So, which one did you go for and what kind of power/performance increase did you get?

Any one just gone for a stealth/sport cam upgrade, if so, what cam, was it any good, what power/performance etc etc

I'm looking to spend up to around £2500 inc to add a bit of pep (rules out the SC route) so I'm investigating what's left.

Would strongly recommend that you went down either the stealth cam route,with a few other of V8Developments other excellent induction mods,or have you also considered Castle Race Engines?Jamie seriously impressed me,enough for me to choose him to rebuild my AJP engine.He's also a Rover V8 expert too,and has built some fabulous engines-top quality work also.I'd give them both a call and weigh up your optionsyes
