As I have said earlier , when I bought my 59 TR-3A it came with an extra
engine and transmition from a TR-4A. I was under the understanding from the
previous owner that the origional trans. did not have synchro for 1st. now
that I have pulled the trans. and layed it next to the spare they seem
identicle, I pulled the top off and both have what apear to be the same gear
set up and a revearse lever not a fork. I thought the trans. with synchro in
1st was to be 1" longer. My guess is that both trans are full synchro. How
would I know the difference between the two.
The next thing is choosing which carborator to use. The origional
has SU AUC878 Type H6, the other has HS6 SU with a different manifold. Which
one has a better performence record?
Your advise is greatly appreciated.
