Hi,

I'm building a V8 special and having previously owned a Griff 500 I recently tried a Chim 4.3 that seems like a better everyday prospect (I have little self restraint).

I'd like to find out its (and maybe some other models) spec.

Basically I'd like to know what did TVR do to the engines (cams, headwork ?) what actual power / torque output was (my Griff had 300bhp rather than the claimed 340 and the dyno operator said it was the most powerful std one he'd seen) and what gearbox and diff ratios were used.

Any facts or links would be appreciated.

I believe the 4.3 was quoted by TVR as having 280 bhp .. probably a bit less in realatity.. (250~265)..
