I'll second that! I met Bill at Grattan too. He's enthusiastic and looking for information as he enters the vintage racing scene. We discussed a book that VSCDA handed out in the drivers school, and

I bought a couple of "spare" pairs of the oversized round ones from Cambridge. With shipping, they ended up being about $100 a pair. Yikes. I thought I had a broken motor mount but was wrong. I've ha

Grose jets (in racing, anyway) = bad news In SU carburetors, they can't handle the vibration and fuel pressures racing requires in my experience. - Tony Drews ________________________________________

A bunch of the TRactor motor folks run the NGK BP7HS with good success. Normally gapped to something like 0.030" but may work OK at 0.050" as MSD suggests. I have similar compression (different cam,

When you replace the pressure plate, get the diaphragm type (Luk?), not the finger type one that came on the TR-3's. The finger type ones come apart, the diaphragm type from the later TR-4's don't. -
