2002 TVR Tamora - Chevrolet LS2 - 6 Litre - V8 - For Sale
The car has been built from the ground up by myself and has had the very best of everything during the build process. I started with a stunning Imperial Blue 2002 Tamora. As the car has only covered 15K miles the chassis was a clean as the day it left Blackpool, the blue pearl paint looks amazing in the sun light . A fresh Chevy LS2 6 litre V8 motor and T56 manual 6 speed gear box with only 11K miles was then purchased to replace the Tamora’s redundant Speed Six engine.
The engine and gearbox was transplanted into the Tamora without the need to modify the chassis. Two new engine mounts were fabricated along with a new M Speed gearbox cross member. Modified LS7 manifolds were used to fit between the narrow TVR chassis frame and gearbox. Gasses being extracted quickly and efficiently through 2 x 2” stainless pipes into the original TVR back box. The only bodywork modification was to the bonnet, the driver’s side vent near the scuttle was added to replicate the standard one on the passenger side. The bonnet now looks symmetrical and has the added benefit of extra air flow.
A custom made part from billet aluminium was designed in order to utilise a backward-set Monaro shifter to a new forward position for the gear stick - something that works incredibly well and looks totally standard. Engine management is taken care of by a brand new Life Racing ECU being fed by a custom spec race engine loom designed by Si-Lec Motorsport utilising military grade wiring. Once the instal was complete it was mapped by TDI with a very impressive 420 bhp and 410 lift. All that power and torque is transferred to the road via a set of 10" wide rear and 9" wide front forged split rim wheels with brand new Toyo tyres ( added since the pictures were taken) There is also a set of OE Spiders that will come with the car . Nitron dampers with custom spring rates make for a sporty but supple ride. The car has been fully corner weighted and set-up by SteerAlign.
Although the interior was nice and in good condition, I decided to finish the car off by upgrading that too. The whole interior was professionally re-trimmed in supple new leather and new carpets that completes the look nicely.
To experience the drivability and the brutal performance of this car and truly appreciate the quality of the work that has gone into building this stunning Tamora for yourself, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
So why am I selling the car? - I have a Corvette that I’ve recently purchased, I can’t really justify keeping both, I’ll be sad to see it go though.
