Triumph Spitfire 2.5PI
« on: August 03, 2009, 06:13:55 AM »

Hi All,
I am in the process of having my Spitfire rebuilt with a 6 cyl TR5 engine installed.. Plus EFI as the standard mechanical injection is rather poo! sure I will get in trouble for saying that!
Quaife backend, standard swingspring and Emerald K3.
Pictures to follow..

Nice. I remember the mechanical injection on those was well loved, but ultimately a bit crap

Looks like you've spent a lot of time and attention on it already.

Hi Chris,
Wrong side of 50KGBP. But its my car and I can. 
Once Dave Walker of Emerald tunes the Emerald EFI I will post the final power run. Its meant to be on the road on the 6th of January..
