1977 Triumph TR7 V8

Retiring and downsizing with nowhere to keep “The Beast”

I’ve had this car since 2006, it started as an original road registered TR7. It’s gone through many iterations of engines, suspension and brakes to arrive at what is a fast, reliable racer suitable for club races, supersprints and hill climbs.

Rover 3.9L V8, highly modified, including decked block, crank scraper / girdle, winged and gated sump, light weight flywheel, accusump oil accumulator, long nose balanced crank with modified bearings for better oil flow, intermediate timing cover with integral oil pump, Triumph Rover Spares alternator bracket and multi belt kit, custom Ross Racing Pistons (2 spares), total seal rings, full ported heads with larger valves, custom springs and seats, roller rockers with uprated rocker posts and supports. Rover SD1 Twin Plenum (only 500 made for TWR Homologation) EMS Stinger 4 ECU. Lift pump and fuel pump with surge tank. Hi torque starter with new Odyssey battery. Quick ratio steering rack, new Momo steering wheel, Cobra seat and RPM harness. Bolt-in cams registered half cage, bolt in front section - not currently fitted. Front suspension is Rover SD1 legs with coil overs and adjustable Spax inserts, compression strut with adjustable lower arms and adjustable anti-roll bar. Rear suspension is Spax adjustable shocks with custom adjustable spring seats. Front brakes are custom modified DBA fully floating rotors mounted on custom hubs with bearing spacers, 6 pot hi-spec callipers, Performance Friction pads. Rear brakes are stock. Diff is stock with Spidr Grip LSD centre. The car is currently wrapped in blue vinyl, the front RH guard has had a repair and requires re-wrapping (spare wrap will be included) Quite a few spares including a second set of rims and 1 spare new rim. Have a look on Natsoft for lap times, but a better driver will make it faster! Wakefield Park 1.09’s - I think it can get down to 7’s.

Due to not being run through Covid, there’s a sticky injector, also alternator requires service, price negotiable.
