[Fot] TR6 Transmission

[fubog1]

Hmmm I thought that we were racing Triumph cars, not TriumphToyotaDatsunEtc cars?
OK, sorry, I'll leave now...

To the purists: how much of your car is stock? Running tires and brakes from the 60's or 70's are you? Didn't think so.

  Toyota Celica 5 speed O/D trans. Got it from a guy in New Mexico about 3 years ago: Eaglegate. Don't know if they are still in business. Spare trans are plentiful. I think the Mustang 5 speed is good too. 
  
  Perfectly legal as long as 5th is an O/D ratio. 
  
  OBTW: carbs are off a '70 240Z. Work great and are cheap. 
  
  Brakes: stock calipers, rotors, and drums. 7/8 rear cylinders. 
  
  Upgraded front and rear hubs, for safety reasons.

  I help keep Richard in business, along with a few others! 
  
  Keep having fun and improving the car and driver. 
  
  Mainly the fun part! 
  
  Cheers,

FoT,   
   
  
   
Is anyone running a non-British transmission in their racing Triumph? Anyone using the HVDA conversion?   
   
SVRA does allow the upgrade with a weight penalty.
