These have been developed for TVRs by www.sc-power.co.uk and produce around +100bhp at the wheels on a std 5L TVR (240bhp atw std...actual)

We are having a trackday at Snetterton on 21st July if anyone would like to come along and have a look and see how they perform against std an Race TVRs.

Got to be of interest to Range Rover, 4x4 and Rover owners??

Driveable, and HUGELY torqueey, if they fit in a TVR...a Morgan would be a doddle.

Why not pop along and have a look...its free!

Won't work in an Aero - no space, and cooling issues...

And I imagine it´s challenge enough to keep a hard-charging Plus 8 on the straight and narrow as it is... hehe

Thomas from
Morgan-Belgium
did it
he claims 305hp

he's been tuning the kent-engine, but it was rather un-reliable,
hopefully this turns out to be better

I didn't see any changes on Thomas's car, doubt you need changing the engine-cover

I'm a bit dubious whether a +8 could be supercharged without major bodywork modification, given space issues. I'd like to be wrong - has anyone done it?

The SS conversion on the TVR's look fabulous, but I'm pretty sure would be really tricky to fit in a +8. Hei-Kat did an SS +8 conversion - it does not seem to be on their site any more but I do recall that the engine bay had to be cut.
