AJP Griff?

[andymadmak]

Looking through some old TVR stuff last night I found a brochure for the TVR Griffith (1992 I think) that states the engine as a 4.2litre AJP V8!

Did any AJP Griffs ever get built? and if not, why not?!

The griff is pretty mad with 300 bhp from the 5 litre
never mind 350 genuine horses.

Oh Crikey, now I want one

Can't be THAT hard to build can it?
All I need is a tired old Griff, a 4.5 AJP lump + gearbox, uprated suspension and brakes, and for less than £20k I'd have a beast fast enough to make even the Tuscan S boys wince.

Aha! I knew there had to be a catch.
On second thoughts, if theres a new tamora based race series on the horizon there might just be one or two racing Tuscans coming up for sale in the forseeable....

In the mean time, gotta get some plugs for my 400.
Its got NGK B7ECS in at the moment. Should I replace like for like or is there something better? (I've replaced the leads with 8mm Magnecores already)
Opinions please anyone?

Doh! Now you've got me dreaming again.

Is that just the work, or does it include the engine + box?
