Dean, 

Autospecialty (aftermarket arm of TRW) has a part number of EBD-044R for an
Aluminum Replacement Drun for Triumph TR6.  The Automotive Division of TRW
was sold off when TRW was acquired by Northop Grumman a number of years ago.
I have heard rumors that the EBD-044R is no longer offered.  However Auto
Parts Giant (http://www.autopartsgiant.com/) has them listed at $80 each.
If they have them in stock, this would be cheaper than modifying an old set
of Z-car drums. The EBD-044R drums are Z-car drums that have the necessary
machining already perfomed to install on a TR6 (or earlier TR with the same
size rear brakes as the TR6).
