[TR] Will I regret making these mods?

[Andrew Uprichard]

I'd do the rear crankcase oil seal conversion before anything else.

Hello:

 

I'm just about to start rebuilding the engine of my TR3A. I'd appreciate
some feedback from members of the list about 2 modifications I'm
considering.

1) In an effort to reduce the amount of oil that my car leaves behind, I am
considering adding a PCV valve assembly (as used in the TR4A). 

    For your reference, this is Moss USA part # 360-630

2) I was thinking of ceramic coating the exhaust manifold. Although this
might provide a modest benefit to performance, the primary appeal is
cosmetic.

 

I'd welcome any feedback.

 

Regards,
