>>If I wanted a Triumph with more power than my Spitfire, I'd get a TR6 or GT6

So what if I already have a highly modified TR-6 and want more power?

>>On the other hand, a conversion like sticking a Chevy V8 in a TR6 seems
strange to me. 

Yeah, kind of like putting a Ford small block  V-8 in a Sunbeam Alpine, or an 
AC Ace.  Or maybe even a Buick V-8 in a TR-7!  Gosh, who would do that?

No flames intended or solicited, just poking a little fun.
