I have an early 1968/69 (CC904) engine and understand that the the later model distributors will work in this motor. It seems like the 68 dizzy (dual vacuum advance and retard) sits higher than a 71

More likely that you simply need to move the dizzy drive gear a tooth or two. The dizzy is driven by a slot in the drive gear, and will engage that slot in only one orientation. The drive gear in tu

Ron--On my '72 TR6, the gap between the distributor pedestal and the block should be taken up by a gasket whose thickness is determined to set the necessary float between the drive dog helical gear a

Ron--What's needed here to get your distributor drive dog to drop down (to where it's supposed to rest) is to turn the oil pump "key". You can use a screwdriver or probe of some kind. When you get th

Vance--There is a product from MAR-HYDE that has a rubberized undercoating. It is a satin black to more or less match what I see as original, on both below the door strip and the fenderwells. Yes, it

Jim--TRF's catalogue shows three different units, based on year model, for the six engine. I can't tell you what all of the differences would be, but suspect some are in the ignition timing curve, an

The 41352 model was specific to the 1971 model year. I has a different advance curve than your earlier unit. The static timing for the 41202 is 12 deg BTDC and for the 41352 is 4 deg BTDC. They both

My '74-1/2 has a 13 degree dizzy advance, which translates to 26 degrees crank advance. That, plus my 12 BTDC static setting means that I get 38 degrees total advance. Most engines like around 35 de

Mike, and list--Bentley got their info wrong when they printed the timing to be at 4 deg. ATDC with the retard blocked. It should've read with the retard connected. The Triumph Repair Manual, almost
