Chet,
On the starter solenoid, take a look at early Chrysler, I think you
will see that it is the same as the non-pushbutton type on most lbc.
This particular oil pump could be from a later TR6.
I got it backwards when I said it was cast iron. The old one was cast,
and the new larger one is aluminum.
It was in a plastic bag that was in a box of assorted junk that was
with the car when I bought it. Someone had started a restoration of the
69
GT6, with this TR6 engine. I guess it proved to be too much work for
someone with a little knowledge
Tom Tweed in Ohio was kind enough to send me a cam, which I took to my
machinist in Las Cruces, N.M. yesterday. One bad lobe. He's going to
weld that and turn the cam to my numbers for $70. Couldn't hardly pass
that up.
Guess I need to send Tom payment for shipping. DID YOU GET THAT TOM?
Here is an interesting note.
Beware of the Bentley manual if rebuilding an early TR6 engine. There
are a couple of real screwups, one just cost me a set of main bearings.
Best Regards,
Tony
