1971 MGB GT V8 EFI For Sale
Having a Factory V8 to use as a pattern, he copied it and externally, it is difficult to tell this car from a V8 produced by MG. But that's where the similarity ends. This car will out-perform the standard Factory version in every department as a result of the sophisticated rear suspension which eliminates roll over steer, gives a much more pleasant ride and of course the improved performance of the fuel injection engine. The superb Frontline caster correction kit eliminates the weighting up of the steering mid-corner and vastly improves sensitivity with finger tip control rather than heaving it round with tired muscles.
This is a true Gran Turismo capable of travelling serious distances in comfort and quietness; ideal for continental holidays.
The car which has done no more than four thousand miles since its conversion has not been over restored and retains much of its originality, the all important patina and integrity; the only concession being new carpets. Most of the mechanical components are new and to V8 specification.
The freshly rebuilt 3. 5 litre engine has covered less than four thousand miles since being put together and fitted with 3. 9 heads and cam along with the Lucas 14cux hotwire fuel injection system.
A bespoke chipped ecu supplied and fitted by Tornado Systems has made a big difference to the driving experience and has added 30bhp @ 5000 rpm over the standard ecu.
LT77 5-Speed gearbox
New dual circuit master cylinder
3. 07:1 Differential brand new supplied and fitted by MGOC.
Frontline Developments 6-Link rear suspension. You won't find this in the Frontline catalogue or price list. This is very special and normally only fitted to cars they build in house.
Frontline Caster Correction kit
Polybushed wishbones
New electrically heated rear screen

New 75 Amp up-rated alternator
ACT Throttle potentiometer upgrade kit using modern, reasonably priced and easy to obtain Colvern unit.
