MG ZR ZS ZT Technical - Tuning ZT260
OK it had to happen. The Darkside is calling I had the airhorns fitted to the V8 and it's a much better sound, Trident did a good installation too even the horns match the paint! Whilst I was in there the service manager mentioned that there is a customer of theirs who is looking into getting his V8 tuned up with Mustang parts, including gas flowed heads, hotter cams and a small supercharger. All the things that Rog Parker said would result in a siginificant improvement to the performance of the car. Does anybody know anything else abut where what and how much? |

I am sure that Dave Andrews could port the cylinder heads for you Neil. As for the cams and supercharger, your best bet maybe to contact a US car specialist importer. Techspeed have recently restored a '67 Corvette for a customer, and seem to have established a number of contacts via that route. Perhaps you could talk to them to see how interested they'd be in working on your MG? |

PS You could also talk to Piper cams, who actually might be quite interested in moving into this market? |

Wasn't there some talk of Rousch setting up a UK facility? (The guys that did the testing on the proto-types and the awesome Bonneville caravan puller ZT-T! Martin |
