It looks like there is more than one method to deal with the flexible coupler. The hose clamp method was stuck in my brain, I think the idea came from an old TRF catalog. In my case, I happen to have

It seems that a person on the other TR6 list (Triumph BBS) had a major failure with the Toyota conversion. You might search the 2003 archives for the details. In order to use the archives, it is nece

I don't if this is relevant to TR6 lifters, but Kastner's TR4 comp manual warns against drilling holes in the sides of lifters or bottom. "Drain holes were attempted in the bottom of the follower-but

Tim-All TR6 dist curves are not created equal. I was looking at a Bentley manual at the various dist. specs. and noticed that the dist. used on 71 cars (41352) is quite different. The static timing i

Vance-Don't panic. If the weeping is very slight, it may "heal" itself. I can remember several rebuilds when the core plugs would dribble a small amount on startup, but would dry up after the engine
