No they were not. I thought it prudent to rebuild them based on their age.

I have a major tuning
challenge on my 1971 GT6. The Stromberg carbs are WAY
out of calibration. I
just had them rebuilt by a professional, the fuel
pressure is 3 PSI. As I run
the car the pistons move up and down continuously.
Can anyone give advice on
what to do?

Dave & Alex,

Taylor Race in Texas can
set you up with a Quaife
dog ring box that bolts in
and should last as long as
you do. Ratios are
available in anything you want
too.  More than 3400.00 but
less than driving 8
hours to race and only making
one session.

GT6 transmission

Looking for advice on a
transmission upgrade for the GT6.
I've spoken with
Quantum Mechanics and they
offer four options.  Standard GT6
box, upgraded GT6
box with TR7 gears, a TR6
trans mod and the T9 option.  My
fear with the GT6
option is the constant
rebuilding, although I understand it
offers the best
ratios.  The best seems
to be the T9, but
$3400 is a lot
especially considering the other costs of
building a racecar
from the ground
up If the T9 is the best, would it be a
sound move to go with
a lower diff
ratio to be able to utilize 5th gear, or
stick with the 3.27:1.
Thanks
Dave
and Alex
