Might take some fiddling, but I ran 205/55-15 on my street TR3A under "stock" bodywork on steel TR6 wheels. I never did quite get the rear axle square to the body, so one rear tire would rub lightly

Been trying to buy one on eBay, but I keep getting outbid. Guess others want them more than I do. I'm guessing that the leakage current should be well below 1 ma for a healthy condensor. Guess I'll

Actually, it's the square root of two, or about 1.414. But the trick in creating a voltage tripler is to arrange the circuit such that the first capacitor winds up in series when the input is chargi

NAPA Online still lists Clevite rod & thrust bearings for the TR6; and Clevite rod bearings for the TR2-4A. No mention of undersizes though, oddly enough. There was talk last year of having King mak

If you were able to see through the throws, and looked at most crankshafts from the end, you'd see that the rod journals overlap the main journals slightly. Not much, but usually enough that a thin

Just out of curiosity (as the block in my now wrecked TR3A appears to have been cut wrong by the factory) ... is it impractical or impossible to cut the liner seats deeper in the block ? Randall

Isn't it close to zero to begin with ? Ok, this is a little crazy ... why not an additional gasket just over the top of the block and not the liners ? As Bill pointed out, it only has to hold coolan

My apologies if I gave the wrong impression, Jack. I likewise have plenty of blocks sitting around, and no current plans to try to remachine the one in the wrecked car. In fact I should probably thr

Most racers build a new setup just for racing, with more attention to simplicity, reliability and in some cases redundancy than the stock harness provides. Big, positive, (ugly) toggle switches inst

I could be all wet, but I wouldn't think you'd want fuses in a race car except maybe for non-essentials like lights. Seems to me replacing a wire or even the whole harness after the race would be be

Works good for me. Doesn't engage the pilot bearing as much, but it doesn't seem to be a problem. You'll need to drill new holes (or elongate current holes) in the rear crossmember, the 4-synchro bo

TRW did own at least some of Lucas. There have been so many companies with rights to use the Lucas name in certain markets that it's hard to keep track. But TRW no longer exists, and various pieces

That sounds like the infamous Ford Fiesta alternator. It was originally made by Bosch, but looks and fits exactly like a Lucas. Puts out more current than the standard Lucas ACR and is bolt- and plu

I don't, but if you measure the diameter of the crank, and the approximate width you need, the NAPA store in Gardena, CA has a Speedi-Sleeve catalog by dimensions. Napa Auto Parts (310) 324-1171 (32
