Hello list-





After almost 3 decades of TR ownership, I find myself in a position of
downsizing, which includes vehicles. While I have enjoyed many great
TR's, I am down to one- a TR250. I listed it today on Ebay.

I have owned a TR2, a TR3B, a TR4, two TR250's and a TR6. Two of them
have won national concours awards, which I cherish. I have also owned
assorted Jaguars and of course, the obligatory MGB many years ago. Heck,
I even owned a Fiat 850 in high school!

However, I have made many friends through this list and cannot thank
Mark enough for his contribution to our hobby. His influence cannot be
mentioned enough. It is hard to part with my last TR without thinking of
Fred Thomas. What a guy and he is missed by many, including me. Without
this forum his knowledge would not have been spread nearly as wide, or
far.

I will miss seeing many of you and I may perhaps return someday to LBC
ownership, who knows.

Until then,....

Max Fulton to ncmgcc
Hey All:

I attended the BMTA (British Motor Trade Association) conference this
weekend. There was an excellent presentation, done by Lake Speed Jr of
"Driven", a Joe Gibbs Racing subsidiary. He is a Tribologist-- "the
study and application of the principles of friction, lubrication and
wear."

He explained the concerns with oil and flat tappet camshafts (which
they use in NASCAR as well.) From what I've learned elsewhere, his
elaboration of the facts and data made a lot of sense and I found
nothing to disagree with.

For your edification, I'd like to share the highlights.

a) It's the phosphorous in the Oil (NOT the Zinc) that forms the
barrier to abrasion on the surface of the lifters and camshaft.
However, the phosphorous is carried in ZDDP-- Zinc
dialkyldithiophosphate--and thus why it's sometimes just abbreviated
as "zinc".

b) the amount of detergent in the oil prevents the further deposit of
the phosphorous. So, while an oil might claim a certain quantity of
ZDDP (say, 1200 ppm), IF the amount of detergent is greater than this
number, this is a worse oil for our engines than one, say, with a
lesser amount of ZDDP yet an equal amount of detergents. (And more
ZDDP than detergents, esp. with some hi anti-friction additives, is
best). Non-detergent oil, esp. for Break-In, is required. (This lays
down the all important first layer of phosphorous, a polar molecule
which requires heat to activate.) Racing oils have high ZDDP, high
anti-wear additives, and low detergents. (The oil is NOT expected to
be in the car very long!)

b-2) Corollary: Any HIGH-MILEAGE oils will have high detergents! Just
like there is no need for high-mileage tires in your old classic car,
a high-mileage oil is the exact opposite of what you want!

c) Boron and Molybdenum are the anti-friction additives. Moly, though,
is the best and most expensive, but is also magnetic (boron is not)
Therefore, using a magnetic pickup (drain plug or magnet on oil
filter?) to trap metal particles is only rendering your oil less
effective!

d) The FINISH on your cam and lifters is also very important! The
rougher the finish, the deeper the phosphorous film required, and thus
the more phosphorous needed in the oil.

**** This explains the raging debate on this issue: One guy claimed to
have wiped out a camshaft in only 900 miles using oil <x>, and another
guy claimed that oil was fine, the first guy must have done something
wrong, blah blahb& and it turned into a pissing contest. IF one allows
for the first cam to have a rougher finish, then the oil would not
have sufficed for that camshaft but may have been passable for the
other guys, etc. ****

e) Zinc Additives. (This is what we've been doing at FC). These are
actually hit and miss. Depending on the detergents in the oil used,
you STILL might not be adding enough zinc to make a difference. (Mr.
Speed showed one unnamed oil that was 3 times the amount of
detergents, and in a 20w-50 blend no less!) Also, the
detergents/dispersants might view the "external" zinc as a foreign
object and actually work to remove it! It is best, then, to use an oil
that was blended with the appropriate amount of ZDDP to begin with!

f) Diesel oils have a high level of ZDDP, but often more of detergents
(as it's a filthier combustion process). Recently Rotella changed it's
formulation, so it's now suspectb&

Part 2 by Max Fulton:

THE NET RESULT: Commercial oils will not suffice. They are made for
modern cars and a larger market, and subject to change. Just like you
wouldn't go into AutoPalace to get a part for your LBC, you pretty
much can't go there for your Oil now, either.

Mobil 1 used to be an oil of preference, esp. for Racing. It built up
a reputationb& then changed it's formulation for the masses. At the
moment, Valvoline VR1 is considered a "decent" oil, but the worry is
the same-- it is sold commercially, and they may change their
formulation at any time without telling in what way and by how much.
(The B-Stingers got caught out on this: we used Kendall GT1 initially,
(and Mr. Speed even used this as his example for an "excellent" old
formulae 20w-50!) Well, they got bought out, changed the formulation
without notice-- and we wiped out a camshaft!)

A "classic" oil will be formulated for old classic (flat tappet) cars.
It will NOT change it's formulation, because this IS what it is for!

There are many of these types of oils out there, but two that I know
of are Brad Penn and Joe Gibbs Racing.

As for Camshafts: Currently the only guy I know of who is selling the
highest quality camshafts (and he's having a hard time getting these
made to his specification!) is Kai Radicke at Wishbone Classics. REM:
the better the finish on the cam and lifters, the less phosphorous
required in the oil to maintain a protective film. I'm not saying
other cams do not have as good a finish-- we don't have the ability to
test them and it isn't information our suppliers have to give us. I do
know, however (as I asked Mr. Speed this directly), that Kai's cams
have the same finish on them as they use at Joe Gibbs Racing for their
NASCAR cams.  (2Ra-- often cams are found to be more like 6 - 8Ra
(coarser).)

Addendum to Camshafts: STAY AWAY from hardest lifters! Moss and others
(APT) are now boasting lifters with Rockwell ratings of 64+. This
means it's quite possible they will be HARDER than the camshaft you
run them on! Well, this is no good. The lifter, where necessary (read:
oil failures), is still supposed to be the "wear item". The OE lifters
(part # 2A13, bucket style, made by AE) had a hardness of around
54-56. These are fine.

Given what we know, the finish on the two mating surfaces is likely
more important than their actual hardness. NASCAR's lifters, for
instance, running on that super-smooth camshaft, are only a Rockwell
of 50b&.

Modern technology is leaving us behind. Support those who are trying to help
us.

Hi guys,
I've been in touch with John about his 71. I have pictures that I can send to
anyone that is interested.

Here's a little info. He's owned since 81, probably hasn't driven much in 10
years. He didn't want to sell a 'project car' so he's had alot done to it to
make it ready to sell. Some stuff from his mechanic's invoice include remove &
repair fuel tank, rebuild carbs, rebuild brake master, rear brake cylinders,
clutch master, adjust valves, belt, all hoses, new right axle shaft, rebuild
wipers, and re-chrome all bumpers. Not sure why, but after all that, he said
the Red-lines are dry rotted, so it needs tires. He had it repainted in the
original mustard yellow and the bumpers dones in 2012. The inside looks good
in the pics, but there are no trim panels in trunk. Didn't send any engine
pictures, but the mechanic invoice also lists 'Underhood Detail'. It also
states 'NO rust except on trunk lid which was repaired when painted'.

He has spent $12,700 on it, and that's exactly what he wants for it. I don't
know about you, but I would have loved to have it for free before he started
on it. (haha)

Write me off list for pictures or more info. NFI

Call John at 910-673-0417 for more info. Real nice older gentleman. Doesn't
email. Phone is at his business, so leave message and he'll return calls.  Car
is currently stored at Friendly Chevrolet in Troy, NC. I assume it's on
display in the showroom.

I'm sitting in my office packaging up my '69's distributor to go to Jeff at
Advanced Distributors for a little R&R.  Jeff has a worksheet for me to fill
out that asks for the distributor number.

On the side of the distributor I see a raised plate stamped with "41202",  "B"
and "1268".  Are all these considered the distributor number?  Or is it just
the "41202".

I don't keep my manuals at the office, otherwise I would verify this myself.

Thanks for helping out this novice mechanic.

Steve sorry to hear of the sale of the TR250, I took a look on e-bay, very 
nice car, and well presented.  I know its not easy, made the hard decision 
to sell my Healey 100 about 6 years ago, but did end up getting a TR250 to 
restore a couple years later.

Since it looks like you have had a couple of TR250s I do have a question 
about the Ratco frame, assuming you have driven a TR250 with both stock and 
the Ratco frame, is there is discernable difference? is the Ratco equipped 
car a little more rigid?

Have thought about doing the upgrade, I know the best time would have been 
before the restoration, but never too late.

Thanks, Greg Lemon

If you are a member of 6-Pack, there have been a number of engine upgrade
articles in the Magazine over the years. Many of the older magazines have
been scanned
and are available in the Members Only section of the 6-Pack website.

Thanks Mark, I was poking around all over the place looking at specs on head 
modifications and headers and maybe even cams, your "project" looked pretty 
ambitious, there is almost too much stuff out there on the TR 6 cylinder, 
lots of choice and in some case somewhat conflicting information.

Hello list-



After almost 3 decades of TR ownership, I find myself in a position of
downsizing, which includes vehicles. While I have enjoyed many great TR's, I
am down to one- a TR250. I listed it today on Ebay.

I have owned a TR2, a TR3B, a TR4, two TR250's and a TR6. Two of them have won
national concours awards, which I cherish. I have also owned assorted Jaguars
and of course, the obligatory MGB many years ago. Heck, I even owned a Fiat
850 in high school!

However, I have made many friends through this list and cannot thank Mark
enough for his contribution to our hobby. His influence cannot be mentioned
enough. It is hard to part with my last TR without thinking of Fred Thomas.
What a guy and he is missed by many, including me. Without this forum his
knowledge would not have been spread nearly as wide, or far.

I will miss seeing many of you and I may perhaps return someday to LBC
ownership, who knows.

Until then,....

Greg et al-


The Ratco frame is not cheap at over $4000, but worth it when doing a full
restoration. I resisted, but Randy Phillippi convinced me to spend the extra
dollars. As usual, he was right.

The ride is a little more tight and I am comparing that to a TR6 restoration I
previously did with repairing the existing frame.

There are countless ways to find to spend money on TR's, but this is a good
one in my opinion.

Good luck with yours.

Just as we climb mountains because they are there, I embarked on a TR6 engine
build that has never been done. I spoke with Lanky Foushee way back in 2005
about my idea, and he felt that I was talking about something that would rival
any of the import 6 cylinder builds. I added a 5th main bearing to a TR6
block. It took me until last year to find a machinist willing to do it. Sadly,
due to the new normal, I find the project ground to a halt. I have the block,
and a cast crank with the main journal cut into it as a guide, to putting the
5th main bearing in the block. (I have pictures) I won't go into all else I
have in this email, but to proceed, I found a custom crank company in NC that
will build a billet steel crank for this block for around 3K. They told me to
bring them the pattern crank, and the block, and get ready. My idea was to
build a supercharged and turbocharged 2.7 liter screamer. According to Lanky,
the TR6 engine could stand 9K rpm, but only if you kept it above 6500 rpm. The
failure of the TR6 engine in racing was always the crank according to Lanky.
And always before or aft the counterweight in the center. So, this 'ole boy
wanted to build a TR6 engine that could idle at 800, be driven on the street
as stock, and yet turn 9K if that was your kicks and giggles.  The
supercharger would give it the wonderful low end torque, and the turbo would
give it the never ending ability to wind to places never ventured in a TR6,
or, where your nerve ran out. For those who think I may be crazy, just look
into what the Toyota and Nissan engines turn in turbocharged only trim.

To shorten this saga for ongoing (maybe) discussion, is there any interest out
there in this circle interested in buying me out, and picking up the baton and
seeing it to fruition? If so, email me off discussion, (if there is any) and I
will give more details of what all I have done, accumulated.

hi.  yeah, I lost it.  put it in a little plastic baggie, and set it
where???????????????

sheesh.

inside the temperature compensator, on the zs carbs, is a little rubber
thingee and a screw.  (Under that white, or if aged, yellowed, plastic thing)

if I had a parts carb, and if I knew where it was, I wouldnbt have this
problem.

Bid, once logged onto the 6-PACK site you should see an entry of Membership
Info (and Renew) under the Your Menu section. From there you should be able to
select the renewal options. Have you gotten that far or is your "looping"
issue elsewhere?

Cheers,
Dave

Bud, if you've allowed your membership to lapse, you can't renew via the
website, Ashford will help you get it done. If it isn't lapsed, then Dave's
directions should work.
