Description

This MGB GT V8 has been expertly built as a High Performance V8 Fast road Race car .

Offered with a fresh totally rebuilt 3. 9 litre Rover V8 engine, by marque specialists, a rebuilt rear LSD axle and updated 5 speed Rover SD1 gearbox.

Since the rebuild the car has been owned by a retired engineer and finely fettled for fast road use. Ive driven this car 100 miles today, and coming from a non MG Man, I was truly impressed .

This is a cracking car, ideally for fast road use , that offers fabulous performance and handling with an awesome soundtrack.... Now ready to be enjoyed , with a dyno read out showing 274. 4 bhp.

There are invoices in the files totalling thousands.

The engine , built by Connaught, cost £14, 000 alone . Featuring a Edelbrock carb, JWL dual port inlet manifold, race exhaust system, dual electric fans and high flow radiator and Magnacore coil.

As you would expect both the suspension and brakes have been up rated .
The front end an entire Hoyle Independent crossmember with 4 pot calipers and vented discs , costing £3000 in parts .

The lowered rear has Gaz adjustables . Fully polybushed and a rebuilt LSD .

It stops brilliantly and handles like its on rails .

Brakes are 4 piston alloy callipers and vented discs with twin master cylinders with front & rear brake bias.

A true wolf in sheeps clothing, the car is supplied with bills totalling over £20, 000 on the drive train alone, excluding the suspension upgrades and was recently fitted with new TOYO tyres .

This is a very potent, ready to race car that can be used for fast road or a host of MG car club and invitation races or just track days, it is very well prepared and presented and has the benefit of being road legal.

I would always take an interesting part exchange , and can arrange delivery .
