Today I assembled an engine with lots of new parts including camshaft and tappets. When I adjusted the valves, three of the pushrods seemed "short". The adjusting screws of those three had to be scre

On the same vein, I bought studs from a vary reputable vendor who resells Moss (some of the packages had moss p/n). I broke one head stud (at 35 ft lbs) and actually pulled the threads off 3 manifold

Also as a side note on questionable parts, beware of some of the aftermarket (TR2-6)transmission countershafts out there. The oiling hole is mis-aligned and will cause wear problems especially in a c

You have to watch just about anything from Moss or Vicky Brit. when it comes to hardware. There prices are highway robbery and the quality is very suspect. 90% of the time I head to my local old fash

Same exact thing happened to me a couple of years ago but I don't remember the details of the purchase. Took me awhile to track down the problem also. Jim Elbe TR4 #223

Uncle Jack & all FOT'ers The stock lifters from Moss were a massive problem & have been pulled from stock. I had problems with them being too big for the lifter bores & the face hardness wasn't! This

Also be aware, there is a supply of 2nd gear transmission bushings that are too short (shorter than the width of the gear). Moss is still selling them, TRF doesn't have any. Does anyone know where I

I don't know where you can get good ones. I too had a problem with my top hat second gear bushing from Moss. Mine wasn't too short, but the bushing did not fit onto the mainshaft properly. We had to

The 2nd gear tophat bronze bushings were used in all the TR boxes until late TR6. Second gear is 1.155 wide. To provide the proper gear lash, the book says that the bushing should be 1.160 to 1.162 p
