Hmmm. scratchchin I'll ringing the local motor factors in the morning. Got a Landrover specialist local too. Fingers crossed.
I've got just under 12v at the pump when you turn the ignition on for a few seconds then it drops away, so it must be the pump.

I used a Bosch 044 motorsport pump on mine and everything's fine. Yes, it's not as cheap as some, but it's a well used and well known part that's ideal for tuned TVRs.

Thanks BB. Aye, can't explain why really. Griff's a great car but them Wedges get under your skin somehow.
Drove this the weekend;..... http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/683258.htm

Almost as quick as the Griff, but the noise.........wobble

Haven't ruled out a few other things too. Ginetta, Caterfield etc. biggrin

In my 408hp 6.0 LS2 I use the Bosch 0 580 254 984, said to be a 220 litres/hour against original 165 litres/hour. DNB's 0 580 254 044 at 330 litres/hour is perhaps a little overkill unless you are planning a turbo or kompressor installation wink per
