My car is a 1965 Mk 3 Grantura 1800s
registration number DRT 249C ,chassis number 65 /5/1011 first registered
18/05/65. Purchased as a non-runner in
1992 from Colin Parry and fully restored by myself. Engine now fitted
with Moss supercharge kit in May 2007 complete with decompression shim and Newman
cam and produces approx 140BHP at the wheels at 5200rpm with 10psi boost. Suspension
now upgraded using AVO adjustable shocks and springs supplied by Steve Reid. Later
type calipers and upgraded pads fitted.
The supercharger has transformed the
performance of the car from good to excellent. The flexibility and torque of
the engine will now allow the car to pull smoothly in top gear from 20mph right
through the rev range. Fuel consumption at a steady 70mph is now mid 30
miles per gallon but considerably less on track days!
