You small chassis Triumph racers, this probably does not apply to you...
Keep in mind a properly prepared Triumph gearbox that is used with a
reasonable amount of care will last a long time. The recipe to get a box to
shift right in race conditions and last many weekends is extraordinarly
simple, build it to the bottom end of the clearance specs in the book. You
either have to build the gearbox yourself, or insist your rebuilder take the
time required to set every clearance as tight as the spec allows.
Most importantly, remember when on track what you are not driving a modern
gearbox. Show it a little sympathy, it will last.
Or, spend the bucks on the T5 conversion. I don't care, it means more TR
gearbox bits available for me!
