thanks for the many suggestions re replacement TR6 starters; I went with skip's suggestion below. Not only is the price $85, but that INCLUDES the core charge ($15), plus FREE standard UPS shipping.

I was going to do this on my '69, and it's definitely do-able. but you need to find a used/rebuilt combination tranny and O/D, which can be hard to do if you don't have an o/d core. the rest of the s

I've seen Big Healeys with Chevy small-block v-8s, but they didn't have independent rear suspension, so they had fewer U-joints to break! Interestingly, a Chevy small block is LIGHTER than the Healey
