I didn't drive it very far , so its difficult to comment really ...
There was a Rover V8 Sammio on here a while back ...something to do with Micky1mo ..a mate of his or something ?
Mikmiglia was putting one together once as well ...but I think that became something else ..possibly the German Big bucks Miglia , but can't remember ..... it definitely didn't get finished in its V8 format ...
I like the idea of a V8 version , but it won't be straight forward ..Vitesse or GT6 diff would be required , I suspect , Vitesse brakes etc. at the very least ..a servo ? maybe ? space is an issue too ...
I'd love to do a V8 fORMOSA but wouldn't want to start with a Triumph chassis ...
I think a few of the triumph guys are fitting MX5 engines too ...but I agree with you about keeping it all triumph being quite cool and a bit more retro ....I like the modern options but an old special does always look cooler with a period engine ...
