Discussion
Wow that's fantastic.Good news indeed.Good numbers from just sorting out a fueling issue.I had a fueling issue which they "sorted" & a full 4.3 rebuild & your 3.6 is making 10bhp & 22ft torque more than mine did.Fantastic.
I hope it all continues well for you, and for you as well Don.

I don't know what a standard engine makes, all I can say is when I was at Surrey Rolling Road in December, Charlie said a 'good' 3.6 should get around 330 to 340bhp at the flywheel.
I bought the car with the engine in its current spec.
Still a happy boy.
My Tamora made 349.5 on Joos RR last year...I bought the car with the engine in its current spec.

Jools, where could we end up with yours/Brendan's carbon airbox plus a Tuscan S straight through exhaust system added to an existing 352bhp and 288lb/ft??
Not trying to willy wave, just trying to gauge whether a piece by piece upgrade is worthwhile or whether to go the whole hog and stick a 4.3 or a 4.5 in when the time comes??
I don't know bob is the answer really .. though on the tamora its the back box you should be changing not the bore of the intermediate pipework .. the S exhaust is only bigger bore once past the gearbox so it's not going to add anything to your hp. The rear box (or boxes if you have sports boxes) is where the hp is limited.

Are you around on Wednesday?Ey up Jools:
To my knowledge...
Mine, Jims & 2 others have been reported.
But thats just Dom.Richard at JHD has sorted at least one out.And I believe TVRSSW did Udo's.
Last I heard the American guy STILL has not had his engine delivered.They asked him for a shipping address. ..but hey...I could ask father xmas for an Aventador & free kebabs for life..dont mean he's gonna deliver it !
I hope it goes well for him (was it black six?)
I remain sceptical.

Udo blew his engine up all on his own. After having run it home straight from the build at excessive speeds for a new engine he then had it mapped in Germany by an outfit that implemented rev limiting by leaning off the fuel!!Apparently he has has a history of this.
Black Six's engine isn't straightforward as it's intended to replace an LS engine in an E-Type Jaguar. It's going to run on carbs so needed a new inlet set-up creating and manufacturing.
