Colin Lyons and Steve Heath (Mr TVR Book) attended from the U.K. Also attending were six million Canadians. OK, there aren't six million Canadians. There were a lot, considering the number of TVRs in Canada. They had a huge turn out last year as well.
This car was last seen at Woodwork 2 or 3. This is indeed a small block Chevy
engined TVR. It was converted in the late 70s. It was so difficult to do
that no amount of money would induce him to build another, even though he owned a
garage and could make other people do all the work. The small block Ford
is 4 inches narrower and that makes all the difference.
The black thing mounted on the heater box is a marine blower
3 inch diameter, 140 cfm - Rule model 140 12v dc. The owner painted it black.
Axcelerated Motorsports brought a Dyno to the show
(Plumsteadvill, Pa (215) 297-8139).
Surprisingly, only one TVR
owner took a ride. John gained 40 hp with his new exhaust system.
I have heard horror stories of dyno testing. This was less stressfull
than leaving a traffic light.
Early in the day at the show.
