Jay is a long time member of both clubs, and has graciously conducted several tech sessions in the past, most recently on January 28, 2006 on British electrical systems. His automotive knowledge (and knowledge of just about everything else mechanical and electrical) is extensive, and he excels at communicating both basics and advanced aspects. Jay has a long history of car activities, ranging from drag racing to concours quality restorations. Right now hes deeply involved in restoring a Jaguar XK140 fixed head coupe and a Peerless roadster with Triumph running gear. Topics covered will be basics of combustion, carburetion principles, SU carburetor design, tune up procedures, and other notable carburetor designs such as Holley. The event will be at 10am at the Jennings place of business, Therm Pro, 280 W. Plymouth Ave., So. Salt Lake City, UT 84115, phone 801-268-9658. This is just north of 39th South, off 300 West. [The Lucas calendar on www.britishmotorclub.org gives a MapQuest link.] This is expected to be a popular event with members of both clubs, so come early to get a good seat.

If you want to cover a larger geographical area to find a gearbox that is useable as is, you may wish to subscribe to the spitfires or triumphs lists which can be found at http://www.team.net/mailman/listinfo These lists have much greater membership counts, mostly US of A folks, but many others scattered over the globe.
