trannies. What's next (I hate to think)? >>

Speed tip: get two magnetic gearbox drain plugs. Swap them
after each race; with practice you will loose very little oil. (yes, I
use Redline) Carefully look at what you wipe off the removed plug.
Bearing flakes require attention.
The cleaned magnet will help keep things alive. I use the same plugs in
the rear axle FILLER hole.

FWIW I have never lost a flywheel off my TR3 crank with the std. setup.
I do use locktighted (on the threads only) G8 fasteners and increased
torque to suit (crank nitrated) I shift very rapidly but accurately, run
rubber motor mounts, real race tires, and what some might consider
good BHP & torque.
Don't we just wish that we could dash to the runoffs with the TR3; most
strange after 23 years in a row. Send thank you notes to the comp board.
