I don't know. I've never put my TR3A on a dyno.
But I do know I can take a long steep uphill freeway on ramp from a stop
light and be at an indicated 70 MPH in third under at the top. The
car is great fun to drive up those windy mountain roads. And the sound
0f the TR4 cylinder engine above 3000 RPM, with headers, and a stock TR2
exhaust system (no resenator) is very sweet to hear. It is remenscent of
a 60's formula 2 engine at the same revs.

I described that at the end of the engine description. But in addition
to that a good set of sticky tyres from coker $$$ and a Quaife would come
in handy. They are on my wish list.
I'm sane, I'm just not very good at it.
