Yes. There are a myriad of other differences between the
UK-spec and US-spec cars, which makes it important to
have resource material from the appropriate market car
when restoring a Triumph.
I seem to recall one of the VTR chapters (VTOW?) recently
running an article listing some of these differences for
one or two models of Triumphs. If anybody has this article
electronically, I'd be glad to put it on the VTR WWW pages.
