A V8 in a TR6?  Hmmm, I don't know what to think about that idea. Here are
some places on the WWW you might want to look at, though, while you're
thinking about it:

http://www.sky.net/~boballen/mg/Masters/index.html

The first two sites feature cars that are completed, and the third has a car
that is under construction. All three owners are willing to talk about their
cars, and the owner of the under construction car has an 8 page write-up,
complete with color pictures, of the construction to date that he would be
happy to send you if you will send him your postal address.
