*NOW SOLD*
I realy don't want to sell this vehicle !! but i am never going to be able to race it properly again and parked up in my garage its a huge waste.
If i get some proper interest, not just tyre kickers i will put a propper advert up and a proper donation to this site.
100" WB Land Rover Bowler Tomcat
4.0Ltr TVR engine running Omex injection 275BHP at the wheels
FIA foam filled bladder tank, FIA seats and belts
Fox resovior shocks and Tomcat springs
Raced in France 02/03/04/06 and Iceland 05 UK 07
Fully road leagal Q plate
Trutrack rear diff Tomcat lightened back axle to lower unsprung weight
110 front axle strong swivels and swivel pins
Set up for fast French events, not so suitable for British events as only 9" travel and fairly soft.
Well ballanced and bloody fast.

Have a look in my gallery you will find some pikkys under toy box heading.

Looking for at least 10k well over 30k spent over the years. If everything is under control you are not going fast enough.

Loads of money has been spent on it the BHP is not the best figure the torque is the thing its not a curve as such more a flatish line just keep changing gear at 4thou and it flies no need to rev its valves out. If everything is under control you are not going fast enough.

Not yet early days just putting my toe in the water and i want it to go to someone who wants it for what it is and use it,
Facebook would be a last resort i think. If everything is under control you are not going fast enough.

Out of (genuine) curiosity how are you getting 275 bhp at the wheels, say 325 at the flywheel out of a 4.0 RV8?

So how did you get 265 or 275bhp from a 4.0 ?
I've got a 4.0 Tvr engine tuned with no expense spared running omex injection with 250bhp.
The 5.0 Tvr runs around 265-275bhp Wink

I will get the Power Engineering rolling road paperwork out at the weekend and will be able to chart the improvements that were made each visit. When it originally left JE running K flap it barely made 160 One of the big leaps was the plenam chamber and inlets getting swirled trumpets and the cosworth injectors. If everything is under control you are not going fast enough.
