Sorry to post this like this guys, but i forgot my friend Mike's email address and know he is on here. Please excuse my post.

Mike, i found that web site that has the turbo kits for the MG and Triumph. 300hp at the wheels on an old 74 like yours. Email me as soon as you get this and i will send you a link. Also i found that fuel stutter in my secondary carb, faulty float! lol....all that work for nothing!

Mike Cook in something other than a V8 MG? Not the Mike Cook i know! Last I heard, he was chasing a TVR or some such vehicle to do a V8 conversion into.

I agree fully, but he is the only Mike that came to mind.

I remember a guy in the neighbourhood had a TVR with a 289 in it!! That was waaaay back in about '66 or '67 or something like that!! Can't remember the details, but it was a pretty kooool car and I just thought that that was how TVR's came!!!!

Not likely to stay together very long without putting about ten grand into the lower end & head.

Sorry, i didnt think all you guys would want the website. I didnt want to get in trouble with the whole spam thing. Thats why i didnt post it here. I didnt think it was allowed.

They haven't finished the kit according to the website. They are playing with a proto-type. And the 300hp thing was what Mike and I talked about, not that website. Sorry to get everyone involved. I was just trying to get a hold of him.

Anyway that website i found is:
