Will, as you know, I'm with you and the 4/4s. However in a previous life,
I did have 3 (count them, 3) TR3. Took them all apart and made one good
car. Then made the second biggest mistake of my life and copped the tub
and put a fiber glass body on it. (The 1st mistake was not keeping the 3
TR3 intact as 3 cars) Boy, I'd love to have them back and all the spare
parts I had.
Anyway, it's been a long time since I've rebuilt a 3 engine, but you don't
have to turn the eng. over. At least I never did.

Back when I was 17 and infected with that strange SCV, I was real lucky.
I don't know if young men today can be infected with SCV, but at least
back in the dark ages when I got it, I didn't have to worry much about
STDs.
