allan Posted April 27, 2006 Report Share Posted April 27, 2006 (edited) I have just fitted a renovated su carb set-up to my V8 engine. This has taken some time due to various snags and hold ups. I bought the carbs at Stoneleigh from Andrew Turner who is a carb expert and happy to give advice to any "7" owner as he owns a TR7 V8 himself. Anyway, I completed the job today and "fired her up" .....the sound was heaven! The carbs are polished and zinc coated and really look good. I am now going the take the car to be tuned and rolling road tested......... I read in David Hardcastle's book that the TR7 is a very underated car. I can only agree with him. Happy summer motoring to you all. Alan. Edited April 28, 2006 by allan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ally Posted April 28, 2006 Report Share Posted April 28, 2006 Hi Allan Glad to year your new carbs are looking good and performing well! I'm getting my set overhauled and plated up by Andy at the moment - a friend of mine knows him quite well and he comes highly recommended. I can't wait to get the carbs back and put them back on the car! I've only got the 'normal' 2 litre engine so it won't make *quite* so much of a good noise as yours, but I'm still looking forward to getting her fired up! Here's to top-down TR7 motoring!
