There is a really good forum here which is based in UK and has a lot of
Sprint info and experts.

Cool that you have a TR7 with a Sprint engine. Do you have any pictures of
the car that you can share?

Thanks

Paul

Good Evening, I got the TR7 with the Dolly Sprint engine out on the road
last
Saturday and it was fun to zip around in.  Sunday Morning we went out to
start
it up and the first crank it mad a nasty clank rattle rattle noise I
remember
from my days of blowing up FIATs (like when the timing belts break).  I
tested
the engine for compression and nothing from number 3.  I assume the piston
hit
the valves and who knows what the damage is.  Anybody had any experience
with
this? The engine has a timing chain and I can see it didn't break.  Anybody
know of things I should do to make this engine more reliable during the
rebuild?   ......................Cheers, Henry Morrison, more Triumphs than
Brains
