- Any one out there know the bore needed to install cam bearings on a TR6 ? I would really appreciate it. Really, really. Thanks -- Mitch Seff Oceanside, N.Y. 75 TR6 http://www.angelfire.com/ny4/triump

- Hi Mitch, Checked out your supercharged TR6 at your site. Where did you get the Eaton M62 blower and the Vintage Induction Systems Manifold? Did all this come in a kit? I found the Eaton M62 site, bu

- WHoa! If you're going to add forced induction, you don't want to start with a H.C. engine. Au contraire! The point of a blower is that _it_ increases the cylinder pressure. If you start off with 9:1

- Hey Don-The VIS kit is no longer made but a local member of the Long Island Triumph club is reproducing a kit very similar. You can contact him at Opntop@aol.com , His name is Sal . He supercharged h

- Oooppps...a little disconnect between the brain and the keyboard on that one. Wasn't thinking. If I'm close to detonation at 9.5:1 at atmospheric pressure, then boosting the pressure won't help the s

- Shane--A CR of 7.75:1 is 'safe enough' with a blower like Mitch has, when putting out around 6 lb. of boost. Stock pistons and rods are adequate, as well as the large SU that goes with his "kit". It'

- Dick-your right about the wrench time being about six hours. I bet I can do it in four now. Allot of the carb linkage & other hook ups are sorted out now. The way the car sits now it runs fine on 90

- Don-Your probably right about the bench flow work. Forced induction makes up for a multitude of sins when it comes to flow & path. When the valves open a fresh charge is waiting at the door to enter.

- I agree, Dick . 8.0 to 1 or less should be fine. Like Dick says, even a torque monster like the 6 will get doggy at a 7.0 CR off boost. The question is gonna be how much timing, and how much boost. B

- I don't know. Have someone with a Spit block measure for you. I don't have one here to check. (I always just gave the block to the machine shop with the bearings and let them go.) Give Scott at Team
