While the Fat Chance Garage would probably be my first choice for an oddball Spit part, the next place I'd call would be Motorhead. They do a better job of covering the small Triumphs than anyone els

PAECO has been blacklisted in the Monster List for at least five years... Jeez, guys, I'm one of y'all, why don't you ever look there first? :-)

When I mounted an oil cooler temp sensor on my GT6, I tried to decide what I wanted to know. I decided to put it after the cooler, because then I knew what temperature the oil that my bearings saw wa

Last time I needed some, I got them made up. Now, I'd probably do it myself... if there's demand, I might be convinced to do a run of them.

You pays your money, you takes your chances. If Kipping's price is real, and you don't run into customs hassles (unclear, believe me), then you have to decide if you would rather support him or a bus

Someone was recently telling me that Bosch plugs have a slightly different thread form (round vs sharp?) that can cause plug blowouts. His experience is the other way around, running non-Bosch plugs

The TR7 box, or components from it (esp the mainshaft!) is much more reliable. You can get a suitable input shaft from John Kipping in the UK. I'm running a mix-and-match box right now - GT6 plus gea

Most interesting. I've been flagging the "Pebble Beach weekend historic races", that is, the Monterey Historics, for a decade now, and have yet to see a Spitfire run. Maybe it's been "at" the races,

Amen, brother. When I wanted a LSD for my GT6, I wasn't willing to pay the roughly 80% markup that everyone complained about, so I bought 6 units direct from Quaife. Used one, sold one, placed ads ev
