...still successfully in business.

It's sometime now I'm a bit out of the TVR world and this winter I'm going to start some radical work on my Griffith engine (if not change it altogether, if I get an honest offer for it)

Thanks a lot.

Love that black 74 ? Corvette on your profile G, I had a hot 69 Stingray, should never have sold it.

Is it yours and what motor is it running ?

Yep it's mine, the engine has been built by ''American speed'' of Ill (same builder that supplies Ultima cars), it's a carbed 406ci small blk with a wealthy 575hp output, the car has been lightened to 1.260kg, has an uprated 4.11 diff (built by Tom's) and it has been rebuilt and uprated all round.

12 years with me and still giving me sensations and good feelings at any given day.

Rob would be my choice as well, he built my 5.5 which was a stonking engine which made 370 BHP and 425 ftlbs!
