Discussion
So why are you asking?

A Range Rover specialist very near me says he has some experience of TVRs and would be confident about servicing the 390 I am likely to buy shortly.
But then he told me they were based on a standard 3.9 Rover block. I had read that they were based on a 3.5, so I wanted to find out how much he actually knew.
He also says that wedges are generally more reliable than Griffiths / Chimeras - which I find a little surprising, the relibility indicator I'd have gone with for any of them is "luck of the draw", from what I can gather.
I'd expected the answer would be one or the other for something as fundamental as that - hence my surprise - guess I should have learned by now ...

Happy to name them, I like them. Seton Engineering, Longniddry, East Lothian.
I'd be surprised if you've heard of them, they're quite small. But they've done good work on my Nissan, and their head guy is friendly and helpful, and doesn't act like he thinks I'm thick, unlike many places.
I'm inclined to give him a try - I'm pretty sure he'd be amenable to discussing exactly what to do before actually doing it.
