Right off I don't know much about triumph frames but I have seen a half 
dozen or so MGA's with either a 302 or 289 V8's in them. Most of these 
conversions incorporated a differnt rear axel but were otherwise unchanged.

So I'm guessing that if the increase of torque by a factor of five or greater
doesn't cause the A trouble, I doubt much if increasing the torque by a piddling
50% or so will either.

But maybe there are big differences in frame/structure between the two cars.

just a thought.
