I knew a guy (law student) who was a motorhead in a previous life. He put a SB 350 into a Triumph Spitfire.

Yikes.

My brother has a TR6. It looks so classic. Personally, I've always had a soft spot for the TR8. For a brief time, Triumph put their own small V-8 into that little wedge they called the TR7.

I highly approve of putting V-8s in small roadsters.

Keep us posted.

Cheers,

Pretty much the only thing that was Jag was the sheet metal and interior it looked the part but everything underneath was frankensteined.

I think if I had the chance this would be my dream build. The lovable little Tiger. The wife is starting to become a rodder.-sunbeam-jpg

Good luck finding one though.

Im just thinking its time to build an off shoot. Ive built plenty of normal muscle cars but cant get into tuners. So the next best thing is make an import muscle car.
