Around 1990 I puchased a performance manual "Triumph TR-6
Performance: Parts, Sources and Procedures for the Enthusiast, copyright 
1989 from a John P. Fitzgerald,  which covers all the right parts to put on 
your TR6 to make it go better.  I bought it for my TVR 2500 which has the 
TR6 driveline.  It is a well written spiral bound booklet of 34 pages and
 has
three main sections- Suspension Modifications, Engine and Driveline 
Modifications, and Triple Weber DCOE 40 Conversion.
     
The writer includes explanations of his own mistakes and corrections and a 
list of suppliers.  It was well worth the $15 I paid for it even though none 
of
the suspension mods (except for the limited slip differential section) 
applied
to my car.
     
Unfortunately Mr. Fitzgerald's address is not included.  However, I looked 
through some old copies of "The English Channel" and sure enough- there in 
the May-June 1989 issue was his ad and address:
     
John P. Fitzgerald
1552A Forrest Villa Lane
McLean, VA 22101
     
I highly recommend this manual, even if you are not modifying your TR6 but 
I would see if it is still available from him at that address.
