              i actually really loved my eta timing belt and all!! it feels almost diesel like and besides the electronics was really reliable. also 22Rs are impossible to kill my dad is terrible at maintence and he has gone 2 yrs without an oil change, lost a rad hose pulling a load of wood and has been running like a champ for 10yrs since he had it.

                Im a big fan of these motors. I would love to put one in a Caterham 7 or maybe even a 240z.

                        TVR AJP8 or Speed Eight. High output and stupid light. Flat plane crankshaft, need I say more?

                        Looking for a TVR? Find your ideal TVR from top dealers and private sellers in your area with PistonHeads Classifieds.




                        More info on the original engine, and some reading on the awesome Cerbera it came in.

                        1985 M10b18. 70maybewhpoffury. Over engineered S50b30 murica BBQ swap in progress.
