INTRODUCTION
When building my 2. 7RS Evocation I decided i didn't want a "backdate", I wanted to start with a genuine quality B Series which i sourced in Germany. I chose an original B series incase the next owner wanted to use the car for Historic events and ensure eligibility. i wasn't trying to create an exact replica of the 2. 7, but something as good and equally exciting to drive. I went with carb's over injection based purely on better power and OMG ! The induction roar...!!
