[Healeys] tri power for sale

[Charles Schott]

Patrick, 

Thanks for the reply and the link. While I realize that my car will never be a 100M, after doing a frame off restoration to "as new" condition of a 1960 BT7 and currently doing a concours restoration of a 1951 XK120, I feel like doing something different to the 100-4. Any help would be appreciated. 

Regards, 

Charlie

Hello 



The parts available within the original Le Mans kit were quite long ranging. 



Have a look at:- 



http://www.acmefluid.com.au/larry/brochures.html 



Then scroll down to 



Special Equipment and Tuning Instructions 

BN1 



You can then look through the 16 page brochure page by page. All these parts (and more) are still available from one of the many suppliers around the world. 



Now just because you fit all these things to you 100 does not make it a 100M. What you end up with is a 100 with a lot of bling.

I'm trying to remember I saw the most complete list; one I know of was an advertisement/spec sheet from Austin. A lot of my Healey literatur is packed away, but I'll try to locate it. 

Some of the original docs are mentioned here, but I don't know where to acquire copies:

Bob, 





Thanks for the reply. Do you know who wrote the list of mods or where I might find it?

My understanding is that the 'kits' installed by dealers varied; the 
complete one--the one done at the Healey shop--includes higher 
compression pistons, a more aggressive cam, some suspension tweaks 
(stiffer shocks, maybe a larger anti-sway bar), a different distributor 
and, of course, the louvred bonnet. 





Someone wrote up a list of mods that could be done--even better cam 
profile, for example--that could be done to a 'stock' BN1/2 to achieve 
performance superior to a M, while keeping the original 'flavor' of the car.
