Not to worry Mike, start off with the simple investment in Kas' books and READ THEM. It takes a lot less time than building an engine again. If you do that and follow the suggestions you'll have an e

I liked the simplicity of the Mallory dual points with total loss battery, though I admit to a few embarassing incidents when the battery went flat. When Tony took over maintenance of Peyote he went

I've stayed out of this discussion, in part because I don't have a dog in this fight (I use a dog box inside a TR6 case) and partly because I'm a consistent proponent of vintage racing organizations

I don't quite get the "scared of the competition" line. Probably because I've never really cared about competitors. The guy I want to beat is me--the last time I raced. But my notions aside, I've alw

Most of the Jaguar automatics I have experience with are hideous. I think they were originally Borg-Warner. Had one in a 420 I owned briefly that I sold as a parts car. Adapting a modern five or six

Seiously guys, the TR6 joints are crap too. I used them on my street TR3 rack and pinion conversion, but they're not much compared to the modern stuff. It's not a competitive advantage, just pure saf

The borgeson joints actually have two set screws. The shaft they are supposed to screw into is hollow. You drill a hole through one side of the hollow shaft and run the screw through to the other sid
