Well have picked up my Tuscan from Dulfords after an engine rebuild and just wanted to give a few impressions, especially with all the other options out there.

I have had a set of new stage 2 Kent cams which I am kind of the guinea pig for. They are actually one above a red rose so will be interested to find out what power I have once the engine has been run in.

The main thing that I have found a difference with though is the oil pressure thanks to their new oil pump that they have developed. I am now running 60-65psi at 3000rpm and on very hot idle (90deg) it is sitting at a very steady and reassuring 30psi.

I have also had all the oil pathways modified (mine was a early tuscan with no rebuild) and a set of De cats (on top of my CCC's)

I am now hoping for many noisy and fast years with my upgraded Tiv and cannot wait for each sunny day to get the roof off.

Had my Tuscan Red rose rebuilt with Richard at dulfords about 3 months now and it the best the car has ever been had all components balanced which makes reving so freely and the engine pulls so well and such a different sound and car

Great Job very pleased with richards and the gangs work

Second that. I've done 12,000 miles since my rebuild/upgrade to 4.0L by Richard, and absolutely agree with your comments:

..... "it the best the car has ever been had all components balanced which makes reving so freely and the engine pulls so well and such a different sound and car"

Also I have not had to top up the oil between services yet. Top Quality rebuild thumbup
