Well as said I have 1st had proff of current figures and they are 55 - 10% and this is on 10-20 year old cars. so 15% is a bit harsh.Nutty wrote:Many thanks for all the replies. For anyone interested, this was the engine I was considering (ebay 230172230192) but did'nt in the end. Mainly because if TVR exagurate hp by 15% or so then I would have little to gain.
Nutty.
I don't think TVR ever quoted 280 BHP for a 4ltr. but as its a HC version it would have more work done than standard. and should get 230-250 BHP.
as I have seen lots of TVR worked 4ltr cars giving this bhp and this is on cars with 50K + on the clock.
The gear box is worth 200-300 plus it still has the complete injection system. so not a bad deal.
I surprized I never saw it. as it would have been perfect for me.
