Scott,
You can combine the CAD plated upper portion of a TR6 heater valve, with
the lower cast aluminum portion of a Jaguar e-type heater valve. Buy the
two valves (sorry, I don't know the part numbers off hand), and drill out
the pop-rivet that prevents the valve parts from turning. Twist them apart
then combine the TR6 top and E-type bottom. Pop rivet the valve at the
correct angle to prevent rotation , and you're all set. The only way to
tell that you don't have a genuine Made-for-Tiger valve is the part
number.
If you'd like, I can e-mail you the part numbers of the two valves to use
tomorrow. If you have a local british parts supplier as I did, they'll be
able to help as well. Just take in you old valve and compare.
Hope this helps
