Cool TR6 parts visualization

Yep, the valve cover on my '69 is painted. It's possible it was replaced at some point, but doesn't seem likely. I stripped it last summer because the...

Pulled the gearbox yesterday, should have plenty to work on for a while now. It was a balmy 20 F in my garage, but the heater helped keep my hands thawed....

Rebuild cost will also depend a lot on who is doing the work. If you're doing everything but the machine work yourself you might get by with $2-3000,...

Cool video, I wonder if modern factories do anything like the quality checks they're showing for these new cars. It also makes me wish I had space to...

Brought the cylinder head to the machine shop this week, a good concrete step toward the engine rebuild project. I won't be able to pull the block until...

Thanks, couldn't remember if you'd mentioned that as part of your videos. I voted for the black Surrey interior

[frostr6]

Same here. We have a strong local Triumph club and a lot of helpful folks there, but reading (and watching videos) from members here have really helped...

Glad to follow another engine build thread, looks like you're off to a great start.

No harm in doing the compression test now and again later. Might come up a bit as the rings bed in?

I missed the livestream, but the startup...

If you're looking at keeping the car in a condo with no space to do mechanical work you'll want to get the most solid car you can find. You'll still want...

I saw this on another forum, this guy has built a 3-d visual library of TR6 parts for himself, and create an animated video of everything he's modeled...

that little pop of red on the cylinder head really comes through with everything assembled, looks great!

I have the stock valve cover but the silicone gasket works great there too. It’s basically permanent unless damaged....
