You may recall the thread "<a href="http://forum.britishv8.org/read.php?3,18101">Reinventing my TR6</a>" in which Dale Knapke showed us how his TR6 was reborn better-than-ever after a high speed shunt.

Dale brought his TR6 to Omaha last month and participated in our BritishV8 2013 track day at Mid-America Motorplex. I took some snapshots of his engine compartment. Frankly, I really screwed up by not getting MORE photos of Dale's updated car. Roll cage. Interior. Etc. - But I think you'll enjoy these engine bay photos nonetheless:

Thanks for the extra photos Curtis,.I'm using Dales motor and setup  as a rough blueprint for my 2.3 Turbo in a TR3. Mine was installed but is back out now to do bodywork.Will  take pictures and send them in at a much later date when I'm farther along Tim
