I shouldn't admit to this but I had a 71 TR6 which I traded in on a
72 Vega. I then put a Paxton blower on the Vega. Talk about using oil!
I blew up the blower and traded the Vega in for a TR7....OH no, mr
bill......
Overheated the TR7 in Turlock, CA one summer and warped the head.
It was never the same again.
So I got smart (?) and went back to a 73 TR6.
So far, so good!
