DZ240 Posted October 13, 2014 Share #14 Posted October 13, 2014 give IOZ a call. should be 1.5H drive from Heidelberg. IOZ Zünd- und Vergasertechnik - Ihre Leidenschaft, unsere ProfessionThey know their job and have a good reputation. Triple webbers wont be cheap so be prepared to spent some bucks.... In regards of location.... i live there where you live next to Thanks a lot! Funny thing, that IOZ shop is almost within the area from where I bought my Z I've got to ask the previous owner if he ever serviced the Z at IOZ. He mentioned something about calibrating the carbs. My driving season this year comes to an end. Plates run out in October. But my Z has a completely reworked suspension, so if you need some input or ideas, please let me know.

gacksen Posted October 14, 2014 Author Share #16 Posted October 14, 2014 (edited) had it on the dyno today with the carbs not set up. quite unsure whats inside the motor in regards of cam springs head work done etc. seems like it is a stroker actually and my guess with 200+ had not been far off normally there must be some more in it.also don´t know for what fuel the carbs had been set up and what is standard fuel in the US ? we have a min standard 95 octane.will get it set up at 98 as this is available at every major gas station in germany. told the guy to not rev it beyond 6K rpm but the dyno figure seems like it is already making max power at 6K.Any suggestions welcome Edited October 14, 2014 by gacksen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patcon Posted October 14, 2014 Share #17 Posted October 14, 2014 I might need a translator for the dyno graph as my German is very limited. I like the TVR it seems to be a fairly new car and I haven't taken car magazines for years so I don't see the newer cars. I love the lines from three sides but don't like all the holes in the rear panel. Very quick though.C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very quick though.C the old ones have more soul as the new ones if you rev that thing to 8K rpm it realy starts to scream and makes some nice pops and bangs on the overrun. this had been there top model but prices went straight up the recent years into a non afordable range. TVR Sagaris - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia and the torque is 227 lbft head is a N42 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff G 78 Posted October 26, 2014 Share #23 Posted October 26, 2014 also don´t know for what fuel the carbs had been set up and what is standard fuel in the US ? we have a min standard 95 octane.will get it set up at 98 as this is available at every major gas station in germanyThe octane numbers are not the same. Europe uses RON while the US uses (RON+MON)/2. 98 octane in Germany is the same as 93 octane in the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
