Project Description
I have attached a slightly dodgy photo of the car.
It is an '82 model, alloy body. Fitted is a later model Rover V8, bored & stroked to 5l, forged pistons, race heads. It used to be on Strombergs but now it is on a ported Vitesse set up, run by a Haltech. It makes a genuine 220kW at the wheels, so it is lively with 850kg to lug around. The rear axle has been left looking standard but has been gutted and replaced by a Holden V8 lsd and cwp, with forged axles. Other standard Morgan mods have been done: Panhard rod, tramp bars, lowered springs, big front brakes from HiSpec, alloy radiator and oil cooler.
It also has a lovely R380 Quaife straight cut gearbox!
It sounds just like the local "V8 supercars" race cars, with the gearbox whine and the deep exhaust through straight through mufflers
