It's impossible to calculate the Drag Coefficient of a TR3. . . . it's far too high. Jack TR's 3&8 I thought this might be of interest. http://www.mayfco.com/triumph.htm Does anyone know where I can
Folks: My 1296 pulls easily to 7000 rpm, slowing 90 hp on the chassis dyno and Fuel/Air at 13.0. At 7,000 I abruptly lose 20 hp and the fuel/air goes to 17. I get the same affect on 1 1/2 and 1 1/4 S
I assume you are serious, do the calculations for drag come apart at higher drag numbers, like pipe turbulence does? Bill Babcock Babcock & Jenkins Billb@bnj.com 503.936.7660 www.bnj.com ___________
Why would it be any higher than a TR4? -- Original Message -- From: "Bill Babcock" <billbab@gmail.com> To: <billdentin@aol.com> Cc: <fot@autox.team.net> Sent: Friday, July 11, 2008 1:41 AM Subject: R

Possibly resonance, you might be getting a node right around the jet area. You could try a different trumpet and see what happens--anything that changes the length of the intake should change the res
Lack of fuel? More pump pressure - larger float valve - larger connection between float chamber and jet? Hope this helps? Chris --Urspr|ngliche Nachricht-- Von: fot-bounces@autox.team.net [mailto:fot
Red Triumph Vitesse = flying brick. No comment on the CD, but as it somehow gets all the way up to 120mph before the front starts to lift, (dangerously), I class that as nothing short of a miracle, (
Wow, about half way thru the season and there's a 3 way tie for the points lead...Hamilton, Massa and Raikkomen at 48 with Kubica only 2 points off at 46. I tried watching the race last Sunday (Briti
The FOX-carried F1 races run on a fox affiliate on Sunday and speedvision on wednesday. I avoided F1 news until wednesday because I haven't figured out how to get the FOX show tivo'ed. It was a great
Is that with the stock windscreen, or racing screens? My mirrors probably add another 0.1. Same problem, the car can be reconfigured for measurable changes in Cd. Spats, tonneau cover, etc. I believ

Some folk suggested terminating the vent line with a air filter. Expensive. Use a gas filter. Cheaper and does a better job. Shane Ingate in dusty NM ________________________________________________

The TR3 test was for a small mouth. All of these early road tests seem to have used a 3.7 rearend. Based on the graphs in the articles, 3.7 OD was perfect for the Jabekke runs (max power at max speed
Any other suggestion as to why the Cd is so different, then? It doesn't seem like moving the grille back to front would make such a dramatic difference, and AFAIK the sheet metal was nearly identica

Can someone walk me through how to test a valve spring? I have the spring tester you put in a vice as well as the kind you use with a torque wrench. In either case, I need to know the compression len
