my TVR to return with US V8
Discussion
Not what you were expecting but my Sag really will return with a US V8 in the next couple of weeks. Lots of you know that this is being done and why I have gone for it and I will follow this up with some words at some stage.
Topcats racing are doing the work and there will be a blog posted up soon for you all to see but I have had so many emails that I thought I better start a post. There will be more photos of it, here is one for starters.

Phwoarrrr! Like the look of that a lot!
Please say it's supercharged a la Cerb?!
Hi,Please say it's supercharged a la Cerb?!
Nope, I wanted more power!
I like the Cerb conversion but this is a LS7, Topcats have done and do LS3 conversions but this is more powerfull. If I ever want to go really stupid and need more BHP then I could super charge it like the LS9.

Looks good, what gearbox you using? what diff?
Hi Alan,I presetly have a 3.7 in the car but will need to change it as i need something a little longer. I now can not remember but I am pretty sure it is a TKO600.
The blogg will answer this I am sure.

The reason I'm asking is I'm building a car with similar specs but want to get everyones opinion on things, I have found out that Quaiffe do a 3.14 diff which I think would be nice. If you don't want to go that long there are 3.3 - 3.4 diffs from them too (can't remember exact ratios).
Looks like a TKO600 Box, was just confirming. Good luck with the project, will be good to see it. Any chance of a passenger ride if we ever meet?
Well done Paul!
This is the way to go imho. Speed six 4.5 forget it put an LS in and have
real reliability and power. Top Cats has got to be one of the best for Conversations, and there Knowledge of the LS engines second to none in the UK.
I'm glad to see someone has got some 'Balls'to go with this project.
Top Cats fitted a diff on my old car and the work was first rate.
good luck mate!
