come up rarely unfortunately. Do you have an ex race car for it?

unfortunately it seems that these are becoming too rich for me now, but I'll share the ad if thats OK.

Be good to see some info when you get the time although I do fear that today these are probably priced higher due to their condition/spec etc. But worth an investigation!

I sold mine late 22 and it now resides in central France, then moved house etc and have just started thinking about another, however everything has gone up it seems! Does anyone have anything gathering dust? Use will be road, the occasional track, sprinting etc that type of thing. No need to be perfect, but anything can be considered. Would prefer a genuine car, factory built would be a plus. Dry sump, great, carbs, yes but I'm happy with TB's.

Sunday the 02nd Dec, its a ticketed admission and is on between 10 and 1pm. Grange Farm, Horningsea, Cambridge, CB25 9JD https://www.cbsautomotive.co.uk/ Tickets here, https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/cars-and-coffee-cambridge-tickets-182591264387?aff=oddtdtcreator

yes it'll fit, all VX HPC's had the type 9 5 spd anyhow so whats fitted to yours at present?

Sounds electrical, Mind you years back, Our new TVR with a ford cologne engine had the same issues, I'd run it in (remember those days!) then suddenly pressure dropped to 0 when we hit 3k, let up the accelerator it came back to normal, thought it was electrical, but no it was the oil pump! New engine. Had to run it in again. Good luck, keep us informed.

you talking specifically about intake or exhaust (or both) noise? The cam and the current tune will create a different set of intake noises on tick over and whilst running through the rev range, have you had the carbs balanced and set up on a rolling road to harmonise those? The exhaust side, as Michael says, a decent can such as a raceco will do wonders

very nice, I'll try and share as I do run a FB page specifically for these awesome 7's

I sold my C20XE HPC mid last year, house move, covid, flu etc all done and am thinking of a replacement for 23. So does anyone have either of these sitting around gathering dust?

yes thank you Martin, one to be aware of for those of us with original equiped cars.

I can echo Rogers comment on the wooden feel but they do the job when needed. Problem is when I swap over to my daily, I nearly put the car on its nose!

Sounds the way I'm looking to go, mine is OK but its the original ECU.

Is that MBE the original? I have read that these are showing their age, unfortunately replacements of those are just not readily available it seems.

or the battery is flat........
