I am in the process of converting my TR8 to an Edelbrock intake and Holley 390 carb. I'm curious about what mods others have made in regard to horsepower or handling.

Hi zoom, welcome to the forum. I don't have a TR*, I have a Spitfire, which I put dual Weber 40's on. Also, I saw a big improvement when I installed headers and also a hotter cam. Later I want to have the head and intake polished and ported and also add a lightweight flywheel and heavy duty clutch. For suspension, I plan to use Polyurethane bushings and probably Spax shocks (I'd like to go with Koni but can't justify the cost). Do you have any pis of your 8 you can post here?

Cheers,
Basil
