Hi Dave,
It is the OTTER thermostat for the thermo-carb fitted some early 3000s
Here are two pics showing the full manifold set-up showing the three
injection tubes.
You can see the thermo-choke device between the two air filters.
I had a thermo-carb on my 1961 Mk II Jag. It was a pain in the butt! I
eventually disconnected the unit and choked manually.
The BN7 owner obviously did too. ;-)
Cheers

Hi All,
I know Healeys pretty well, but surely don't know everything about them.
Maybe I just don't know the earlier 6 cylinder cars, but this has me
stumped. there's a listing for a 1960 BN7 on Ebay. While viewing the shot if
the engine, I see something that I can't identify. Mounted to the head by 3
screws is a triangle shaped component with something protruding up from the
middle. It is right next to the thermostat housing. What is that?
Thanks,
Dave
