I spoke again with Bob at Southwick Machine about the lightweight (8.5lbs w/o r/gear) steel flywheels for the short-nose TR6 crankshafts. His CNC man is nervous about doing a run of 1-2 wheels becau

The brackets should be semi-circular. If they are elliptical, I'd say you car has been playing "Bullitt". :) Any signs of gravel-rash? Shane Ingate in Maryland PS Rags update. The TR4/5/250 hood bul

What is too expensive? I figure that the 20 extra horses and the saving in weight would be worth $3K for a fully-dressed hemi-head. Is that figure in the ball park? If is is a x-flow, figure another

Good analysis. I have almost no experience with the conversion of a straight-6 head to a x-flow design, except with the 250 cubic inch Ford straight 6 built in Australia for the past 30+ years. This

I've not a lot of experience in this area, but can give you a few tips: - the TR6 seats are very narrow (about 19.5" at the base, and 17" at the shoulders) with thin cushion and back rest. - if you

I spoke with Bob at Southwick Machine....great guy. Came very highly recommended by Jack Drews. It turns out that the work they did in 1991 is for TR2-4A, so the pattern will not fit on our 6s. This

I've not seen C4 seats in a Triumph; I mentioned them because they are narrow and with a really thin back support, so are a candidate to test-fit in a TR. I have used them in a Pantera, and they are

Maybe others have run into this. It is the general wisdom of people that two-stage ("two pack") is "better" than single-stage acrylic enamel. However, I have been trying to find a true black paint.
