Safari Four© Performance Engine 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 email for further details. CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFO ON OUR SAFARI IV ENGINE
