[TR] TR6 Question

[dave]

Don’t do it.  The triple carb setup needs LOTS of air.  The airbox chokes them.  I did that.  Had to totally lean out the carbs to make it work.  use three separate K&N filters.  The slick looking triple carb airbox looks slick but starves the carbs of the air they need.  I threw mine away after I spent all that time and money on it.

I may be pushing my luck here. Asked three questions and got three solid answers…..so maybe one more…….

 

I am preparing my TR6 for a Goodparts Stromberg tri-carb setup. I have had this for years (12) and finally deciding to prep it right and install it.

 

Years ago when I purchased it I remember seeing a few installations where the stock dual airboxes (2 or 3) were modified (cut & welded) to make a stock looking airbox for the tri-carb setup. I have the boxes but cannot locate a picture of those that made this modification.

 

Does anyone have a photo, procedures or know someone who has this modification on their car?

 

Thanks again,

Alex Manzo
