check out www.koenig-specials.com They sell turbos for the TR so I'm sure they have the other parts needed.

See if you can find out who raced the TR in Europe in the 80s. I know it raced in some class there and remember reading about it it car magazines. If my memory serves me correct, they did use a turbo in the later years of the race series. I wish I can offer more but I'll post if I find something.

It would be a matter of establishing enough relief in the piston crown to accomodate an out of time valve. Getting some pistons produced would be expensive but possible.

Greetings:

I take it that the Ferrari(TR) engines are interference type? i.e. when the belts go and/or the valves hang, the valves will strike the pistons? Since I may lower the compression in the TR to accommodate intake boost, perhaps that could be addressed... Does anyone know of any technical journals or power advisory books for this engine?
