John,
One of the New Jersey Triumph Association's members, Nick Hanges, is an LBC
mechanic. He a TR7 with the Sprint/Dolly engine in it. I've never been in
it, but I heard it running. It doesn't sound like a TR7 engine. Nick says
it's very fast. BTW - Nick has built some pretty fast TR's, so...... I'd be
inclined to believe it's a sweet engine.
