Hey
I would doubt that Triumph would flog a Citroen design of all things...
(only the design for mercedes hoods for the Stag!!)
A question regarding Triumph Slant Fours Engines:
We all know about the Saab/Triumph link up with the smaller capacity
engine and the later expansion by Triumph to make the 2 Litre TR7
engine...
And that Saab re-engineered their motor, after being horrified by the
wickedly large tolerances Triumph used...and that the Saab motor was
later turbocharged...
THE QUESTION IS...
Has anyone ever put a Turbocharged Saab slant into a
TR7/Dolomite/Toledo??
(And have you heard of the Toledo TS? A factory proposal, after it was
discovered that the two-door Toledo had a very promising performance
chassis - the body shell would be strenghtened and the motor enlarged (I
forget what they looked at powering it with)
my brother has a two-door tolly...I must talk to him ;-}
I know a guy here in NZ who repowered a two door Toledo with the 2L TR7
motor, with cosworth pistons, extractors, etc...
200kph. No Kidding.
