Harry Granger<\/a> purchased a 1971 Reliant Scimitar SE5 that did not run. The previous owner had replaced the factory 3.0 L Ford Essex V6 with a 2.9 L Cosworth (BOA) V6<\/a>. Harry was able to get the car running with help from his friend at GT Evolution<\/a> and back on the road. The V6 sits on custom mount brackets and features DOHC heads, a custom intake manifold, and three Weber 42 DCNF carburetors. Power is sent through a BMW Getrag five-speed manual transmission to the factory rear end upgraded with an aftermarket limited-slip differential. Harry plans to rebuild the motor over the winter with upgraded camshafts from the Cosworth (BOB) V6.<\/p>\n
