The BritishV8 Pub

Long overdue... here's a "Sticky" thread for posting your favorite BritishV8 videos.

To kick things off, here's a Link to Martyn Harvey's video library.

Here's a Great Tip!
"Cut and Paste" the website code YouTube provides for embedding videos.
Your video will be more convenient for BritishV8 users to watch,
and they won't have to leave this site.

This is a long video that we made of the car being driven on different roads under different throttle positions/loads. We made this more-or-less unedited version so people could hear the car and get an idea of what a conversion car is like to drive. This one should be nice on long trips or just around the block. Plenty of power and comfort.

Dave Gable posted this terrific video in the "Engines" section... but everyone will want to see it.

The British Motor Trade Association has a new video online. This video sheds a little insight on the people, what we are about and what we do. If your looking for Parts, Media Sources or Repair/Restoration facilities, please have a look at the BMTA.

Note that there are a few familiar faces in this video to the BritishV8 membership!

This doesn't sound exciting at first just informational BUT you need to decide for yourself.

There is a video on you of my Tiger under "Jerry's Twin Turbo Tiger" Sorry I don't know how to post it up

If you watched the power put out at the dyno of the MGB that we post above (Novmber 17th 2009) you may want to watch this one right after and see the difference...

What is it?
1980 MGB.
3.4L V6 motor.
No special parts.
No tuning.
No altered computer program.
Headers and intake are the only difference between this motor and a stock unit from a 1995 Camaro. This is a bone stock and very hard used motor. The car sat all winter, was brought to the dyno and run with fuel from last year.
Ignore the fuel readings- they were wrong. If the motor would have done that, it wouldn't have run- tail pipe test equipment issues.
Video quality is lacking but adequate.
