Some one
once said to me, "Performance modifications, to a
Land-Rover! Unthinkable; it would be like souping a lawn
mower engine!" So saying, he climbed into his rusty little
Rover and drove off down the freeway, engine screaming at
45mph.
British
Northwest has been actively involved in the development and
manufacture of Land-Rover performance engines and engine
enhancements since the early 1970's, and produces engines
which are capable of outperforming by as much as double
their standard-specification derivatives in a wide variety
of on-and off-road conditions. Our Safari Four engines are
modified or revised in virtually every aspect of design,
from ignition to exhaust, including camshaft profile,
induction systems, cooling, cylinder head design, fuel
delivery, and component material.
Chief
among the attributes which are valued by their owners is the
capacity to pass other vehicles in high-speed conditions and
to accelerate in uphill conditions where a standard engine
would have not the remotest capability of so doing.
One
example comes readily to mind, which is that one of our
customers whose exceptionally-well-maintained standard
specification Land-Rover was taken over Washington's
formidable Snoqualmie Pass, was able to achieve only 31
miles per hour [even using his overdrive] while our
identical vehicle [Short wheelbase Safari petrol 2
1/4-litre] with our Safari Four climbed the grade at 65
miles per hour, cresting the summit at 75 miles per hour and
climbing......all in fourth gear overdrive. Worthy
testimony, perhaps to the capability of the British
Northwest Safari Four. Please
