Marcus,
Idles smoothly, revs ok, no power? Sounds like low compression or
a flat cam. Usually a timing error, either induced by dist setting or
frozen/weak advance setup won't cause such a massive lack of power. Of
course, you probably have been tainted a bit by the Triumph 6 cyl.
In fact, upon further consideration, I'm sure this is your problem.
Now that I think about it and read the subject line again,
"1975 Midget..no power", I really don't think there's anything wrong at
all, just the recently-tainted calibration of the dynomometer in the seat
of your pants.
