the rolling road with Peter Burgess Gavin Bailey reports on a session on the rolling road with his MGBGTV8. Gavin says "they did a fantastic job on the car. It's now producing 150bhp at the flywheel and is so much smoother to drive. I'd very much recommend a visit." 140721 More Dyno specialist - Novatech in Slough David Waterton says "I recently had my V8 Roadster checked out on a local rolling road based in Slough. The firm is called Novatech, a small business owned and operated by a father and son team to whom I shall return when the need next arises. 250509 More Needle choice for SU carburettors on an MGBGTV8 A V8 Bulletin Board thread on needles for SU carburettor needles for the MGBGTV8, followed the release of V8NOTE400 from Alan Rennie on his rolling road test session with his V8.

He had carried out all the usual checks, but that old sparkle was simply lacking. Was it the timing? - well with a 123 fully electronic distributor fitted, very unlikely. What about the leads, or maybe the plugs, even perhaps the carburettors? All checked out, so what was denying the car its legendary performance? 300109 More |
