Does anyone know how much power the Leyland TL11 engine had ?
I believe it was a 6cylinder 11.1 litre turbocharged unit, but the power specs I keep finding are all over the place !
From a quoted 170bhp at 1850rpm (for a 1978 Leyland Titan bus), through 205bhp at 1950rpm (for a 1980 railbus), to 210bhp at 1850rpm (for a 1987 Leyland Lynx bus).
Or are they all correct and the engine was just continually upgraded through its life ? If so one wonders why Leyland kept the same name !
