Where would be the best place to take the Chim for a once over in the east mids ?

Cant really say I have any particular symptoms or faults exactly but the engine just doesn't "feel" Right, I Guess Im just looking for someone to tell me Im being daft, But I wouldnt mind the piece of mind of having someone give the engine a once over.
Are there any decent Indies or specialist in the Notts area or do I need to go further afield ?

Maybe worth getting it on a rolling road to check the power curve and fueling.

V8 Developments aren't that far away from Nottingham.

You could give the guys at RaceProved in Sheffield a call - they are experienced with all TVRs including the RV8 and they also have a rolling road that could be used for a diagnostic check over. 0114 269 2027

Quite a number of the South Yorks TVRCC use them for their RV8 engined cars.

PM me if you want to know about TVR Independents in the East Midlands or read my previous post.

My engine has also gone somewhat off tune since it came back, I would definitely agree with Barkychoc about getting it to V8 Developments, they....are.....good!

Caveat Emptor !!!!!
