Finally some progress this weekend! Got the links in the postfix imap procmail mharc namazu cron chain
all straightened out.  Don't worry if you don't understand that part, just know that the messages
to the Team.Net lists are now getting added to the archives on an hourly basis once again.

Next on the list is getting all the missing months added.

But for now, time for a cold one.

FoT,
My transmission had developed a high pitched whine but only in regular drive.
I could only hear it coasting in nuetral possibly in part to the exhaust noise
but when I engage the OD it goes away. The the volume and pitch are definetly
related to axle speed.
I use anB J type OD. It seems on the surface to be an overdrive issue but I'm
not assuming anything.
Any thoughts ?
Thanks as always for the input,
jim g.

My first thought is a bearing in the overdrive, most likely the large diameter but
rather thin one. I'll see if I can come up with a link to a picture of it.

Just installed one. 17 lbs and 720 cold cranking amps. Nicely  
fabricated. You can buy their aluminum battery hold down bracket also  
well made. Just came back from Road America and it performed  
flawlessly. I run an alternator so no problem with charging. Would  
highly recommend the Braille based on my recent experience. The only  
advice is to figure out how you will run your battery leads and then  
buy the battery configuration that fits your layout (location of POS  
and NEG terminals). Also, the battery hold down is universal which  
they don't mention in the literature. I got mine from Summit and they  
had a discount coupon. Shipping was free.

Good luck.

FoT,

The TR6 made its first appearance after a 6 year hiatus this weekend  
at RA. One of only three Triumphs in the entire event. The car went  
through a 1-1/2 year frame-off rebuild. The car is now Ferrari red  
with white stripes. After working out a few bugs, we went on to place  
3rd in class on Sunday. We had 51 cars in the group with 30 Porsches  
and 5 Datsuns. I think we surprised a number of the entrants. Thanks  
to Daniel and Richard Gehweiler.

Hope to see some other Triumphs at the September event.

Allen

I take that back.  I've been going back and looking at the diagram. The bearing
I pointed out would not be turning in direct drive, as another list member confirmed.
But the clutch bearings are often bad in overdrives I have worked on. I've not been
inside a J type for quite some time. The last one was on a TR6. Shortly after I got
it working the car's owner committed suicide. Hopefully not related to my work on his car.

Hi Allen,
Congratulations for the successful race weekend.  Great job waving the Triumph
flag so high.
I also have the Braille 17 in my TR3.  Purchased through Summit, must have
been almost 4 years ago.  Great results so far, better knock on wood and order
another soon.
Keep up the good work and sharing your experiences with your Triumph Friends.

Dave H.

I don't believe that is correct.  In direct drive, the springs force the clutch to the rear, where it engages with the annulus,
forcing both of them to turn at driveshaft rpm.  So the center of the bearing (which is fastened to the clutch plate) turns, while
the outside does not.

In OD, though, the hydraulics pull the clutch forward against the brake ring, so it and the sun gear stop turning, meaning that
bearing does not turn either.  Then the planetary gears turn around the sun gear, forcing the annulus (output) to turn faster than
the planetary carrier (which is driven by the input shaft).

Subject: [Fot] MK III / MKIV vs 1500 for vintage racing
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Errors-To: fot-bounces@autox.team.net

Today it began - grandpa and Van (grandson) launched a full assault on a $200
1500.

It's in very good condition actually. We will have to put new floor pans in it
but that doesn't appear to be very difficult.

The plan is to put a 1300 in it for vintage racing. I would rather have had a
MK III (and If I can find a long day to drive there and back there are two
waiting to be had) but this one jumped out only 2 miles from my shop and was
just too easy to grab. If we end up with a MKIII then we have extra suspension
pieces, brake calipers and other parts as spares from this one. Otherwise this
one may work unless I learn in the process that we would be better off with a
MK III, which is the purpose of this post - to ask questions and learn the
difference. I have done some web searching on this and know the MK IV is about
150#'s heavier than the MK III in stock trim and the 1500 is about 180#'s
heavier. The 1500 has some chassis extensions to support the body and bumper
in the rear but those could be cut away. I think I see some extra weight in
the front end at the bumper mounts. I'm sure there is more. I'm thinking a lot
or all of the weight difference is in DOT smog and safety requirements, nicer
(ie heavier) trim and maybe a little in sound insulation.

Hopefully someone (or many) will know the answer to these questions:

First, are the MK IV and 1500 the same - car body and chassis wise - with
different badging and trim - Yes / No

Stripped out to racing trim is the body / chassis of the 1500 or MK IV heavier
than a MK III?

I believe HSR lets you run a combined driver / car weight number by adding a
given amount for the driver to the base min of 1432. Is it difficult to hit
that weight and the minimum weights without driver on the MK IV?

SVRA weight is 1432 - is that harder to hit with a MKIV than a MK III?

Is there any other reason or reasons that make a MK III more desirable?

Thanks for any help with this!

I've read the feature in the "Historical and Technical Guide" more than
once, because it's explaining so clearly what can be done on the brakes and
the possible gain in laptimes.
Fifty years on, the picture of Ashley Page in the book will not be suitable
for a new driving licence I suppose.

Hi.
I wanted to say thanks to Scott Barr and Joe Alexander for hooking me up
with this group.  I've been out of racing for quite awhile but the sounds
and smells are still really in my blood. Especially the racing fuel...(Hate
to think what chemicals are in there).
 I'm looking forward to getting back to associating with some other Triumph
nuts and using a bit of your knowledge.
                                                            Thanks. Pat

FOT,

Who in the FOT is going to Grattan?

It might be a chance for an informal get together.

What Mike's not telling you is that his car is no slouch either. He did very 
well at both races.
Nice guy, takes his wife, kids, dogs, and parents to the races. His dad 
drove his Big Healey to Pitt Race.
John Styduhar did well also both weekends.
The Redhead ran well at Pitt Race (Richard's CV joint rear axles are 
beautiful and the 4.1 diff really helped) but I spectated at Schenley Park. 
Can't do everything.
Cheers, Bill

Subject: [Fot] Solid U-Joint
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Errors-To: fot-bounces@autox.team.net

Ibd like to replace my TR4A steering column rubber (rag) U-joint with a
metal U-joint much the TR6 uses. Is there a racing supplier who sells these
and can someone point me in the right direction with a P/N too. The big three
think these are made of gold so Ibm looking for a better deal if one is to
be had.

Thanks

I use the all metal racing u joints Pegasus sells. Don't have a part number but all you need is the shaft diameter and the number of splines. Might have to grind a flat in the shaft for the lock screw depending I which style you use

Good morning.
Pegasus has Borgeson needle bearing u-joints. The size is 9/16 x 36 spline, 
PN 1492-32, for British cars, as per their catalog. Around $80. Great 
quality and very rugged. I'm sure Won Hong Lo Enterprises in China is 
selling cheap knockoffs, but what's your car (or life) worth? I know of one 
Bozo who used Craftsman 1/2 drive universal jonts in his steering setup on a 
street rod!
They also sell splined steering shafts and shaft supports.
NFI.
Cheers, Bill

The Borgeson u-joints are the way to go.  One thing to be very 
cognizant of with these - unlike the stock U-Joints, the don't do a 
through pinch bolt with an interference fit - they use a big set 
screw instead.  You need to make sure the set screw hits an indented 
area and RED LOKTITE that sucker in place.  You do NOT want it falling out.

Tony, it's not a bad idea to drill and tap a hole on the other side of the 
U-joint from the set screw and put another set screw in.
Loctite never hurts too.

I'm not an engineer, but I was taught that you never want
set screws across from each other - then you are just
riding on the small tips of the set screws.B  If you want
to add another set screw, it should be at 90 degrees
to the first set screw.B  At least, that's what I was taught.
Anyone else agree or disagree?

Thanks,
John

Replace the set screws with bolts drilled for loc wire. Also , I place a split
collar on the steering shaft in front of the hanger bearing or firewall.
Should the bolt ever go awal, shaft can not come off the splines  .

Replace the set screws with bolts drilled for loc wire. Also , I place a
split
collar on the steering shaft in front of the hanger bearing or firewall.
Should the bolt ever go awal, shaft can not come off the splines  .

Good point. I'm working on a flail mower and the set screws are 90 degrees 
apart on the large drive sprocket.
I stand corrected.

I'm not an engineer, but I was taught that you never want
set screws across from each other - then you are just
riding on the small tips of the set screws. If you want
to add another set screw, it should be at 90 degrees
to the first set screw. At least, that's what I was taught.
Anyone else agree or disagree?

Thanks,
John

Ibd like to replace my TR4A steering column rubber (rag) U-joint with a

I agree, for what little that is worth.  But I might be tempted to find a way to pin it in place rather than relying on a set screw
and Loctite.  It's no damn fun to lose your steering even at low speeds, I can't quite imagine having it happen on a track!

Bob, did you install a Heim joint or similar to support the shaft?
I'm thinking about getting rid of the rag joint myself.

Subject: [Fot] Clearing inventory of overstock bearings
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Errors-To: fot-bounces@autox.team.net

Group:
I am clearing my inventory of bearings I haven't seemed to use. About
ten years ago I bought out another shops inventory of bearings which contained
bunches of original AE/Glacier and Vandervell rod and main sets in different
sizes. I thought I would offer the remaining sets to the group before putting
them on Ebay. I will list them and the first email for a size gets it. All
sets are still in their oiled paper wrapping which I have opened to check the
size. One set is still in it's paper but I placed them in another brand box
because the original box was torn. Any set is $25 except the one in the wrong
box which is $20.

Spitfire Small journal (1147/1300) bearings:
AE/Glacier
M3353SA +.010" Main Bearings
AE/Glacier M3353SA +.010" Main Bearings (as above
but not in original box)
AE/Glacier B4374SA +.030" Rod Bearings
Vandervell
VP899 Std Main Bearings (plastic wrap)
Vandervell VP898 +.010" Rod Bearings
(plastic wrap)
Vandervell VP898 +.020" Rod Bearings (plastic wrap)

TR250/TR6
AE/Glacier B6433SA +.030" rod bearings

Email if interested in any or all of
these.
Thanks - Ed

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Errors-To: fot-bounces@autox.team.net

The steering column is supported under the dash. I used a solid clamp mount with rubber inserts to replace the flimsy stock clamp that used felt. The shaft is self supported under the hood by the strength of the metal u-joints with no issues. I used modified GoodParts steering rack mounts. It is all very solid but a heim joint support would give additional strength.

All of the Spitfire bearings are gone. The only bearing set left is the AE/Glacier TR6 +.030 rod bearing set.
Can't even say the east coasters got them first...most went to an early riser in CA.

I spend way too much time at the computer, not enough time in the garage. Of course,
some of that time at the keyboard is what keeps Team.Net on the air. Sadly, though,
some of it is spent playing Words With Friends on Facebook, a version of the Scrabble
word game. Not very productive use of my time.

But if you ever decide to play it yourself, you may be happy to know that it accepts "KAS"
as a valid play.

Hi,

I'm about to pull the trigger on some Speedsters for my TR6. I've been 
teetering on getting the 225/50-15's for my TR6. I haven't figured out 
(yet) if this is okay for SVRA Gp 8 or VRG H2.

Can anyone running a TR6 chime in, please?

I know I'll def. not be running R6's.

TIA for the feedback.

So you are moving the TR6 over to the racetrack? I'd use the 225-50-15's unless the rules don't allow it. Most vintage clubs allow 1.5" over stock rim width giving the TR6 a 7" rim, nicely fitting the 225's. In CVAR TR6's are in a group that allows 50 series so that is the tire. They are also cheaper than the speedsters and can be bought used from the Berget guy.

Errors-To: fot-bounces@autox.team.net

Hi,

I'm pulling some three-piece Revolution wheels out of storage. The bolts 
are in need of replacement. I got all the hardware, but somehow I lost the 
torque specs for the dinky bolts used to hold everything together. It 
looks like the bolts are 6mm.

I found references to 15 lb/ft, but the info I found is for Fiske wheels, 
so I don't know if the specs carry over. I als recall the shop that got me 
the bolts saying "inch-pounds" not "foot-pounds".

Relavent references are more than welcome.

Regards,

Vrg goes by SVRA tire rules, which are explicit as to sizes.

I think they require 205-60-15 on 5 1/2 rims at least that's the rule for

This is, I think, an error in the factory manual that's been carried 
over to most other manuals. I'm betting that this was correct for the Mk 
1s with the 1600 cc engine, and that figure was just carried through.

The correct specs are the same as for the TR6 mains: 2.3110"-2.3115" for 
std. dia., with acceptable clearance of 0.0010"-0.0027", with the 
optimum clearance around 0.0018"-0.0020".


Cheers.

Errors-To: fot-bounces@autox.team.net

I am helping fellow FOT Dave Foreman put together a refreshed TR6 motor for
the Sherlock Homboyz/FOGHAT/Sweaty Boyz crap can TR6.

The machine shop called today and the crank needs to be turned again now down
to 20 under. I am a little hesitant to put a 20 under crank into an engine
that will be seeing lots endurance race service. This is not an all out race
motor but it will be used up to 6000 rpm.

So the request.  If you have a TR6 crank coffee table or desk lamp or
otherwise underutilized early TR6 crank in a std/std size please drop me a
note or call me. I'll even ship you the 10 under crank so you can still have
that conversation piece on the reading table.

Thanks,

Another TR6 question.

What is the compressed thickness of a standard head gasket?

Greg,
In reality .020" under is not a lot with all things considered.  There are
numerous race quality engines running out there which are even less.  I
would not hesitate to use a .020" under crank for your needs and if you are
a little nervous have it nitride for a little extra.

Subject: [Fot] Early TR6 crank

I am helping fellow FOT Dave Foreman put together a refreshed TR6 motor for
the Sherlock Homboyz/FOGHAT/Sweaty Boyz crap can TR6.

The machine shop called today and the crank needs to be turned again now
down to 20 under. I am a little hesitant to put a 20 under crank into an
engine that will be seeing lots endurance race service. This is not an all
out race motor but it will be used up to 6000 rpm.

So the request.  If you have a TR6 crank coffee table or desk lamp or
otherwise underutilized early TR6 crank in a std/std size please drop me a
note or call me. I'll even ship you the 10 under crank so you can still have
that conversation piece on the reading table.

Thanks,

Grind the crank and have it nitrided for SURE. That alone will do more for
that crank than any other one thing.

TR3's came with 4" rims , thus the 5.5" rule. TR4's came with 4.5" rims, thus
the 6" rule. TR6 came with 5.5" rims and rules allow 7" rims.

Great question and I bet we get a bunch of funny replies!!!  As far as I
know it is a steel forging but the type would be unknown to me.  I have had
a number of cranks nitride over the years and not one facility has asked
this question...

Steve Yott

PS. I believe the web at the rear main is made of tin.......!!

Greg Solow's reply from November 2010:

 >The TR-2 through TR-4 crank is made of a Manganese Steel alloy. The 
English alloy code is forged right on the crank. It is EN-16. The alloy 
can be looked up in the "Machinists Handbook"...The EN-16 alloy has 
enough good ingredients so that it benefits dramatically from being 
Nitride treated in an ammonia atmosphere.<

Vrg goes by SVRA tire rules, which are explicit as to sizes.

Thanks Duncan and Greg. Unfortunately, the English alloy code EN-16 was not
helpful in describing the type of steel in the TR4 crankshaft to the
metallurgy folks at P&L Heat Treating and Grinding in Youngstown, OH.  They
explained that the type of steel determines the duration and depth of the
hardening process.  Lacking this information, they cannot determine the
depth of hardness without destructive testing.

Great question and I bet we get a bunch of funny replies!!!  As far as I
know it is a steel forging but the type would be unknown to me.  I have had
a number of cranks nitride over the years and not one facility has asked
this question...

John,

I can send you three partially destructed examples for destructive testing.

Might be the reason there is not an EN16 crank in my race engine.

Let me know,

Greg

OK, along these lines.  I need a Section of a broken spitfire crank for a
"special" :) project. Does not matter what engine. If you have one in your
junk pile and are going to VTR in September or the 2015 Kastner Cup toss it in
your trailer.

Subject: [Fot] TR3 vs TR4 crank, differences?
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Errors-To: fot-bounces@autox.team.net

I'm thinking of prepping a crankshaft for our TR4 vintage racer.  I have at
least one TR3 crankshaft, a TR4 crankshaft and one or two other unknown
spares.  Are there any differences or are they the  same and can be used in
a TR4?

 

I first plan to have it crack checked and checked for straightness and size.
The next step would be balancing and lightening possibly?  Is there any
significant advantage to polishing the crank, other than that it looks real
pretty?  Then I was going to have it bead blasted and nitrided and finally
ground  with the proper radiuses and fillets.  I have to review Kas's books
to check for other tips.  I've got CRS disease (Can't Remember Stuff) and
it's been awhile since I read some of those books!

 

Thanks for the info and any other tips on crank prep.  Once I've got the
"new" crank I'll install it on the following rebuild with the thought that
with the forged pistons, Carrillo rods and the "new" crank, we should be
able to use 6500 RPM reliably.

 I think, for once, there are not any differences between these crankshaft.
As far as I know, they are the same in every detail.

Hi Guys,



Peters IMSA TR8 had its first go at Spa last weekend.

The car did well and showed that there is more to come.

I have no inboard. Didnt work, but Ive got two external videos.

Subject: [Fot] Small journal Spit crank
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Errors-To: fot-bounces@autox.team.net
Status: RO

Group: I originally posted this in late May but the last never accepted it.
During my cleaning of house this past weekend I came upon a small journal Spit 1300 crank on the shelf. It has been turned to .010/.010 and is ready for use. Someone a while ago asked for or about one and I can't remember who it was. If anyone desires this please email me; in the meantime I'll give a look see to find out what I paid for the machining. I also have a couple of 1147cc cranks too if anyone is using them in their 1300's.
Thanks - Ed-

Jeff,  I'm pretty sure my head started as one of the earlier Mk3 heads
(8.5:1 or so).  It's at the machine shop right now, but I'll look at the
p/n when I pick it up.

Group
We are installing an A type O/D with a TR6 trans built from a box of 
parts into a 64 TR4.
Is there a difference in length between the TR4 vs TR6 throwout bearing 
carriers?
Having trouble with the length of the slave cylinder pushrod fork. 
Obviously too long now.
Thanks in advance
Glenn

You guys are way overthinking this! As Kas stated, Mercedes has a motor 
hooked up to the turbo that produces energy when not boosting the engine and 
then pulls the energy from the battery to spool up the turbo when 
accelerating, then eliminating the lag.

Mid Ohio was clear and hot and the racing was great.  Not as many there this
year as last and several of usual suspects were not in attendance.  I 'spose
Indy and its cost may have kept some away.  I only counted about 4 Triumphs,
Mark Craig and Marty Sukey in their spits and me in the 3 and Dave Spiwak in
his 4.  Bill Tobin was in attendance but not his car. Dave and I had wheel
to wheel battles in both the Sat. and Sun. races.  There were a flock of
Minis there from all over the country.  Joe Huffaker brought his Mini and
the Jensen Healey from the west coast.  I think he won the Mini race but the
ex Mueler Jensen broke.  Group 3 had 33 cars and the Eprod class was won by
Dan O'Connor in a very, very fast Elva. His times were the same as the Cprod
cars!  I managed 3rd. in E on Sat and 2nd on Sun.   My friend Ceasar Cone in
Cprod had a faster time by a couple of tenths than Vic Skirmants' and John
Schrecker's 356's in his Alfa Duetto but wasn't able to keep past them..big
accomplishment I think.

Nice update to your weekend at MidOhio.
I know Huffaker was at Indy.  Must have kept the race rig close.

Thanks all for the input on A-Type (Box O Parts) Overdrive testing and 
Release bearing sleeve.
Trans and O/D work fine (leaks a little-bad Moss part) Swapped out the 
release bearing sleeve for the bronze one from the TR4.
Everything works OK at this point.
I can confirm that the TR4 has a shorter bronze sleeve than the TR6 and 
the TR4 uses a Borg & Beck coil spring 3 finger Clutch Cover or pressure 
plate.

anyone remove any of the vanes from the stock 1500cc water pump to
prevent cavitation or slow down the water flow?  This will be used on
a vintage race car.  Appreciate any insight and information and

Jeff,
      Just checked my head, it is also the 517528 p/n.  It was milled at
least once before, has been ported and the chambers worked over.  At 3.255"
I measured the chamber at 31.1cc.  I ended up only having it milled to
3.235", looks like there is still a lot of material left.

I think that most of us who race the bit TR-s have gone to the 
diaphragm clutch like on a TR4a.  The ones with fingers have been 
known to come apart at high RPM and are a good test of the tensile 
strength of the scatter shield or of your feet.  That's not a part I 
care to test.

John created also a page for purchasing the video:



http://www.bfcc.biz/triumphdvd/tcdvd.html



I think this is a very nice  report from the Nordschleife with many comments
of drivers.

Also a short capture of  Peters IMSA TR8 and why it wasnt allowed to race.



Cheers

Chris

Subject: [Fot] TR4 Wetliner Engine Cam Install Problems --- Happy 4th
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Errors-To: fot-bounces@autox.team.net
Status: RO

Happy 4th!!!

I'm building my 3rd Wetliner Triumph engine in the last 6 months and 
have run into a problem with the cam install.

The owner had the engine baked and the cam bearings installed at his 
machine shop.

The cam won't make it but a third of the way into the first cam bearing.
I have gone so far as to put a stone on the leading edge of the cam 
journal to reduce the lead in size with no effect.
I've lightly tapped it with a small plastic dead blow but it won't give.

Having installed cam bearings in the past. when I had the tool 
available, they take the shape of the I.D. of the casting unless they 
were buggered on the install.

I ran into this on a TR3 engine this past winter but the bearings were 
not aligned and I could wiggle the camshaft and get the thing in.

This is the original cam and it doesn't look like the end is mushroomed. 
All I can assume is that the cam bearing is not installed correctly.

Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Glenn

Thanks for the fast response.
The installer put the cam bearings in wrong.
The cam bearing holes are not lined up with the 3 bolts that located 
them in the block.
I managed to get the cam in but there is too much drag now. I will have 
to drill out the bearings so the plugs don't deform the bearings any more.

Note that the rearmost cam bearing has a hole to feed to rocker arm 
pedestal.  If that one's misaligned you won't get oil to the head 
unless you have the external oil feed line.

I just checked our 302 Trans-am motor, 2006 Fusion Cup car and the Spit crank to water pump ratio and all 3 are between 64-68% under driven. I run the Spit with a block off plate in the thermostat housing with a 3/4 hole in it. We have a hard time getting the water to 180 and that's on a hot day. I donbt see any reason to remove vanes from the water pump, plus there are only 4 of them. We run 68% under drive on the Denso mini alternator.




Hope this helps

Seems like I recall that Don Marshall worked all this out on his Spit.

Just thinkinb&  back in the 90bs in my neck of the woods  there use to be full grids of Sprites and Midgets racing.  I cannot remember the last time I saw a Bugeye on track. Seemed like they were coming out of the woodwork. I hardly ever see them any more. At Mid-Ohio last weekend there were two midgets, that was it.  Where the heck did they all disappear to?

Marty that's a dam good question. I thank there are 2 or 3 sprites and
midgets in my area and maybe one bugeye.
They didn't turn to rust just too well maintained. Are they all 1275 now
with the new rules?

I suspect it is not economical racing anymore. With the SCCA Miatas in great
numbers in 5 or 6 classes which you can run in multiple classes at the same
event by simply changing tires... Every now and again we see a bugeye at a
vintage event. John Travers for instance... He's been racing them since they
were at the showroom, possibly! Spridgets run vintage too, VRG for instance.
Sadly some of those drivers are like Kamikazes to the older cars. Search
YouTube for "Filangeri yikes".

Just a few observations based on my involvement in Brit cars & Club racing for
decades, not in any particular order-
1- economy, small-bore Brit car racers are generally on the lower steps of the
economic ladder.
2- used parts availability, the junkyard spares supply is about dried up.
3- cost of quality race parts, what might be OK $$ for E-type or porker 911
racers is out of sight for the average little Brit car budget.
4- maintenance demands & requirements of Brit iron vs jap, no explanation
necessary, there is no comparison..
5- the cost to be competitive. Racing is racing, the nature of it is to do
improvements necessary to win races. As the rules loosen up, more development
& $$ is necessary to keep up, and not everyone has the $$ to do so.
6- age group. Those of us who can directly relate to these cars, and grew up
with them, are getting old... and the younger guys, and gals, are naturally
more into the modern stuff they grew up with.

Just thinkinb&  back in the 90bs in my neck of the woods  there use to be full
grids of Sprites and Midgets racing.  I cannot remember the last time I saw a
Bugeye on track. Seemed like they were coming out of the woodwork. I hardly
ever
see them any more. At Mid-Ohio last weekend there were two midgets, that was
it.
Where the heck did they all disappear to?

As has been said, the Miata is what's needed to win in SCCA, and that is the
way SCCA wants it.



The Club cannot make money from companies that no longer exist. (Standard
Triumph, BMC, BLMC, JRT).



Like all automotive competition endeavours, new, young, competitors are needed
to keep the membership roles full and also the grids.

Younger members want to drive modern, lower cost/maintenance cars.  Fiddling
with grenade motor Frog Eye Sprites and Spitfires is not in their play book.

They want a car they can flog all season and concentrate on driving it, not
rebuilding it every other race to be competitive at the National level.



Which bring us to the other issue with the cars that we like.   Spares.



There is not an infinite number of usable engine blocks out there for any of
the cars we love.  Ask anyone competing with a an FWB Climax engined car.

While certainly there are many more Spits, Sprites, MGBs and TRs, the number
of parts gets smaller every year.  This makes them more expensive.



There is no magic to this equation.



Also look at it from the vintage racer's perspective.   To build a front of
the grid Spitfire will cost every bit as much as a TR3 through 6 car.

Most guys will choose the faster car.



It's human nature.

Terry, et al...

I'll never forget the first time a MIATA club showed up at a vintage event at
Road America many years ago.  There was no group for them to race in, so they
were there just to watch and 'tour' the track.  VSCDA was glad to have them
for the 'touring dollars' to help pay expenses.  I remember making a smug,
sarcastic comment to one of them similar to, "How do you like driving that
'Jap Lotus'?"  With out taking a breath the guy came back with, "It's pretty
much like driving your Triumph, except I don't have to work on mine."  I bit
my tongue and nodded.

The MIATA explosion as a race car is impressive and very good for road racing.
Road racing needs good things these days.  I also remember the first time I
raced the Autobahn Country Club circuit near Joliet, Illinois.  Their track
coach was a well known MIATA racer and a hell of a good coach.  He was
commenting on how successful MIATA was as a race car and how many there were.
He said very quickly there were hundreds and hundreds.  He also said, that
while he was not sure, he thought there was even at least one 'legal MIATA
race car'.  He heard it was down in New Mexico, but the guy did not race much
anymore because he was not competitive.

Why am I not surprised?

You said "CLUB".  SCCA hasn't been a club since corporate interests took
over in the early 2000's.  Their interests are only in making money.  If
that means eliminating some cars as they pare down classes, so be it.  This
applies both to road racing as well as autocross.  That is precisely why I
stopped competing in SCCA sanctioned events in 2004.

I've always wondered why the wet liner harmonic balancer kit doesn't have an
option for a bigger pulley. A large percentage go on race cars anyway.

The current issue of Vintage Motorsport is excellent, and includes a 
feature article:  My Favorite Race: BOB TULLIUS 1967 Daytona 300 Trans-Am.  In it 
he gives SCCA good marks for amateur racing, but suggests they don't have a 
clue relative to professional racing.  Not the first time I heard that.

Among lots of other stuff, the issue has a good exclusive Steve McQueen 
interview, one remembering Sir Jack Brabham, and one about the restoration of 
Donald Campbell's Blue Bird LSR.

Maybe old guys just become readers, but this is all Good Stuff to me.

Terry,

Very nicely thought-out analysis.

Reality so unvarnished is greatly appreciated and should never be
denigrated. And your argument is unassailable until it gets to the
conclusion of choice of vehicle.

I submit that for many of us, it's still quite agreeable to enjoy the
nostalgia-coated vintage-myth of old sports car racing. 

I also question the premise that most of us would trade our hoary Limey-iron
for a faster, more dependable, cheaper, rice burners that can't even mark
their own damn parking spot. If it's all about speed and derring-do,
skydiving is still a cheaper alternative.

As has been said, the Miata is what's needed to win in SCCA, and that is the
way SCCA wants it.



The Club cannot make money from companies that no longer exist. (Standard
Triumph, BMC, BLMC, JRT).



Like all automotive competition endeavours, new, young, competitors are
needed to keep the membership roles full and also the grids.

Younger members want to drive modern, lower cost/maintenance cars.  Fiddling
with grenade motor Frog Eye Sprites and Spitfires is not in their play book.

They want a car they can flog all season and concentrate on driving it, not
rebuilding it every other race to be competitive at the National level.



Which bring us to the other issue with the cars that we like.   Spares.



There is not an infinite number of usable engine blocks out there for any of
the cars we love.  Ask anyone competing with a an FWB Climax engined car.

While certainly there are many more Spits, Sprites, MGBs and TRs, the number
of parts gets smaller every year.  This makes them more expensive.



There is no magic to this equation.



Also look at it from the vintage racer's perspective.   To build a front of
the grid Spitfire will cost every bit as much as a TR3 through 6 car.

Most guys will choose the faster car.



It's human nature.

You'd want a smaller pulley on the crank...  The ATI balancer has a 
much smaller pulley than the Moss one.

Richard... I think he was speaking of the next generation...  What interests
them.

Let's face it, there aren't a hell of a lot of young folk, say born in the
80's or 90's, attending Triumph car club meetings... And I don't know about
other parts of the country... But driving a TR4A in the late 70's and 80's
drew interest wherever I went...  Now I could be filling up at a gas station
and two buses of teens going on an outing, stopping to raid the convenience
store and hit the restrooms, wouldn't even give my car a second look, yet
alone ask me about it.

They're not interested.

Now let's talk about vintage versus newish...  There aren't machine shops
everywhere you look anymore and the prices for work have gone up
astronomically... Simple supply and demand theory!   Just like the supply and
demand issues hitting the used parts stream, as discussed.  Young folk want to
bolt performance onto a motor and tinker with mix and timing with a computer,
etc.  They're not into blowing through old motors, experimenting through trial
and error with clearances, gasket materials, etc. etc.  They'd rather hit a
Pick-A-Part and spend $40 for a used quarter panel than even begin to consider
the options facing TR enthusiasts!

That's not to say there aren't a few kids out there brought up right and with
proper vintage car taste, : ), but they are few and far between.

Most people here are racing cars from their youth; is it any surprise that
today's late teens and 20 to 30 somethings want to race cars from their time!

Triumph car club meetings... And I don't know about
other parts of the
country... But driving a TR4A in the late 70's and 80's
drew interest wherever
I went...  Now I could be filling up at a gas station
and two buses of teens
going on an outing, stopping to raid the convenience
store and hit the
restrooms, wouldn't even give my car a second look, yet
alone ask me about it.
They're not interested.

Now let's talk about vintage versus newish...  There
aren't machine shops
everywhere you look anymore and the prices for work have
gone up
astronomically... Simple supply and demand theory!   Just like the
supply and
demand issues hitting the used parts stream, as discussed.  Young
folk want to
bolt performance onto a motor and tinker with mix and timing with
a computer,
etc.  They're not into blowing through old motors, experimenting
through trial
and error with clearances, gasket materials, etc. etc.  They'd
rather hit a
Pick-A-Part and spend $40 for a used quarter panel than even
begin to consider
the options facing TR enthusiasts!

That's not to say there
aren't a few kids out there brought up right and with
proper vintage car
taste, : ), but they are few and far between.

Most people here are racing
cars from their youth; is it any surprise that
today's late teens and 20 to 30
somethings want to race cars from their time!

JEGS has an oversized alternator pulley. Its kind of hard to find in the
catalog and website categories so search their website for it.

What's the recommendation for small alternators for the tractor motors?

Time to get rid of the boat anchor I have on mine.

I have been using the Denso alternators for a Kubota tractor...  They work
great, are very small and deliver 40 amps.  They take a bit of small
fabrication to mount and adapting a proper sized pulley.  

Google 1-2478-01ND and you should find a number of sources.

Greg,

I found a Nippon Denso forklift alternator for the TR motor on the Morgan.
 I think it was a 35 amp unit.  I was able to alter the big hex bolt/spacer
thing with a hacksaw and file to properly position the alternator's pulley.
 If you need the part number I chose from those available via eBay I can
probably find it for you.

Yup, our old British stuff is not a real good fit with what runs at the conventional autocrosses anymore.  I used to relly  enjoy the TRF and VTR autocrosses.  TRF does not have them at the Summer Parties any more due to lack of participation. Ibll be at VTR in September having a go at it.

You said "CLUB".  SCCA hasn't been a club since corporate interests took
over in the early 2000's.  Their interests are only in making money.  If
that means eliminating some cars as they pare down classes, so be it.  This
applies both to road racing as well as autocross.  That is precisely why I
stopped competing in SCCA sanctioned events in 2004.

As has been said, the Miata is what's needed to win in SCCA, and that is the
way SCCA wants it.



The Club cannot make money from companies that no longer exist. (Standard
Triumph, BMC, BLMC, JRT).



Like all automotive competition endeavours, new, young, competitors are
needed
to keep the membership roles full and also the grids.

Younger members want to drive modern, lower cost/maintenance cars.  Fiddling
with grenade motor Frog Eye Sprites and Spitfires is not in their play book.

They want a car they can flog all season and concentrate on driving it, not
rebuilding it every other race to be competitive at the National level.



Which bring us to the other issue with the cars that we like.   Spares.



There is not an infinite number of usable engine blocks out there for any of
the cars we love.  Ask anyone competing with a an FWB Climax engined car.

While certainly there are many more Spits, Sprites, MGBs and TRs, the number
of parts gets smaller every year.  This makes them more expensive.



There is no magic to this equation.



Also look at it from the vintage racer's perspective.   To build a front of
the grid Spitfire will cost every bit as much as a TR3 through 6 car.

Most guys will choose the faster car.



It's human nature.

As has already been said, folks tend to like cars that were cool when they
were at that coming of age time, teen years. At 56, I'm considered a fairly
young MG TD owner. In my case, that sweet spot for cars is right around 1970.
How many younger folks do you see interested in Model A's, Packards, etc. Not
many.

I think the future for racing any MG, Triumph, Morgan, etc. is in vintage.
Even then, I see the huge Huffaker transporters (and similar) and their very
expensive to keep MGB, corvette's, etc,. Far out of the league of the typical
MG/Triumph vintage racer. Considering what is needed to run competitively in
SCCA, I just don't think it's a viable proposition for our vintage cars.

Owning several vintage British cars, including a handful of race cars, without
a doubt a Miata or similar is better for most racers. We just happen to dig
the vintage scene, and have no interest in SCCA type racing.

I would expect to see continued decrease of vintage British cars involved in
SCCA racing. Encourage those folks to come vintage race, where it could be
argued that's where they really belong, as none are newer than 1980.

We'll pass along a fine vintage sports car to each of our kids, and grandkids.
I'll provide any of them with a car & support to go vintage racing.  I think
that's the way to keep it going forward, along with being open and friendly to
all who show an interest at the track, in our neighborhood, etc.

Last little point; take one of your vintage race cars to local car shows.
You'll stand among the sea of 55-57 Chevy's, Corvette's & Porsche's. Invite
those interested to actually touch and sit in your car. Fire it up maybe. Give
out business cards, and have them call you if they have any interest in
getting involved. You'll create quite a stir, compared to the bozos with the
"Don't Touch" signs all over their cars.

Just thinkinb&  back in the 90bs in my neck of the woods  there use to be
full grids of Sprites and Midgets racing.  I cannot remember the last time I
saw a Bugeye on track. Seemed like they were coming out of the woodwork. I
hardly ever see them any more. At Mid-Ohio last weekend there were two
midgets, that was it.  Where the heck did they all disappear to?

I've met a lot of young guys that love their cars.  They were not brought
up with them, they just kind of met them along the way somewhere. Keeping
these older cars working good and in fine trim is not easy and that is part
of the charm and the contest. Not every young guy is lost in a field of
modern technology.  Lots are involved and take great pride in finding ways
to "fix" things and enjoy the research and the trials and the problems.  It
isn't easy, but it is FUN.

I never thought ANYONE would give a damn, and that was fifty years ago.
Actually it is still kind of a mystery to me that so many really care and
more will come along as they are right now. Just encourage and assist when
you can.

Kas,
I think the passing of traditions and the interest in things with "history"
will pass from our generation to the next one. Think about the interest today
in brass era cars and Big Headlight cars of the 20's and 30's. The folks who
collect and enjoy them are not folks who drove them before or shared/raced
them with the dad.

So although we see an aging crowd in the race paddock (like me) at vintage
events, I see a pretty large sport we are involved in and a lot of cars. It
may have peaked at this point, due to the aging demographic, but there were
700 cars at the SVRA Indy event. There are 200,000 people that attend the week
long Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix. That is a lot of people watching TR3 & 4's
on a city street road course. As those events gain traction as "new"
traditions, they bring a new group of participants into the sport.  As a
example, your '72 GT6 will be racing at PVGP next week with my 22 year old
son.

What will be interesting to watch is how the line that separates "vintage"
cars like our Triumphs, from "modern" cars as the line of demarcation slides
up the date curve. Today's Spec Miata is tomorrow's vintage racer, and I doubt
the guys making race history with them today expect some day a guy will have
restored the SCCA National Champion car and proudly race it again.

FOT Folks,
Bosch makes an alternator that is designed for high revs and race use.
It doesn't tend to come apart with excessive revs and puts out more
than enough amperage (forgot exactly how much) and is the usual
mounting issues.
Available from several suppliers, including Amazon, for a decent price.
 Part no is ALRACE1.

Shocking in Nor Cal

FOT: I use a regular $60 Delco altrernator and wire it to self regulate. It 
takes a very small modification to align it right: just file off a small 
part of the mounting tab on the alternator.
I also modify the mounting bracket on the 6. The original bolt is a 5/16. I 
drill and tap the hole to 3/8 for theDelco. Works well and is stronger. No 
problems in 8 years.
I don't run the revs that some guys do though with their 4s.
KISS.
Bill

do.B  As a driver, I am in awe of those that came before me in an age of

This past weekend we had the Cheetah at Gingerman Raceway in Michigan for an
open track day testing in preparation for an upcoming race at Road America.B 
Most of the participants had modern imports or exotics and had never seen up
close the likes of the Cheetah.B  Based on their reaction, they had never
heard anything like it either.B  All day we had people stopping by asking
about the car.B  That is one of the best part about old cars - they tend to be
a common denominator that can bridge gaps in age, income bracket, and all
other manner of socio-economic factors.B  There is something pure and visceral
about an old race car that bring people together.B B Velocity stacks,
pinstripes, and minilites are memory triggers that andB should be prescribed
as anti-depressants.B  Everyone has a story that they share - 'I remember
seeing one race at Meadowdale in 65' or 'I never should have sold mine' or
'This reminds me of my dad'.B  With the Cheetah the big one is 'I had a slot
car of this when I was a kid'.B  It's easy to see why the older crowd loves
them but I try to encourage the younger ones when I can.B  I will always ask
kids if they want to sit in the cars.B  At bigger events where there are
spectators I will always wave to the kids when I'm on my way to grid or on a
cooldown lap (they're at an age where they assume anyone in a firesuit is
somebody ;)B  I guess in short I try to give them some sort of memory or hook
that hopefully they will share with someone else.B  Who knows - maybe they'll
want to drive an older car too.
I have met so many amazing people since I have been vintage racing.B  Most of
the drivers share the same addiction as me so that is an easy connection to
make.B  The best experiences though are meeting those that blazed the trail
that we are all still driving down today.B  It's guys like Kas that engineered
these cars to perform beyond the factory's expecations for longer than anyone
would have ever imagined.B  It's the welders, painters, and metalsmiths that I

suitable for any museum worth its salt.B  There have been times where I am on

that I haveB spent countless hours reading/dreaming about.B  I am surrounded

task at handB begins I appreciate the sounds, smells, and the fact that my
right foot is already cooking in the footbox.B  This does notB happen when you
are sitting in Hyundai surrounded by Mazdas.B  B All of this together creates
a niche in the racing world that I feel blessed to be a part of.B  I want to
make sure that when I am part of the grey hair contingent at the drivers
meeting that there is another generation following that have the same crazy
spark in their eye when they hear a GT6 crackle to life and watch the 30th
running of the Kaster Cup.

What's the recommendation for small alternators for the tractor motors?

Time to get rid of the boat anchor I have on mine.

There has been a good deal of discussion about alternators, for all that are
interested this is the denso that I run and the cars it was original to.  It
has been a very good unit and I have one on the car + a spare.  You can see
that they are not to expensive and on-line or at the local parts house you
should be able to get one for an even better price than listed here.  You
might have to eat a small core charge one time.  They are small, light,
cheap and put out more than enough amps for a race car.  Hope this helps.

 

Cheers, Ken

Subject: [Fot] Wetliner Engine Cam Bearing Install Problems
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Errors-To: fot-bounces@autox.team.net
Status: RO

Having discovered that the cam bearings in this engine were not 
installed properly to line up with the bearing plugs, I was considering 
making my own tool to pull new  bearings into the block.

I have used most of the cam install tools on the market including the 
Lisle tool currently available. This has been revised since the last 
time I used one. The last time I used one had o-rings to hold the 
bearings. These work but I'm considering making a simple tool on the lathe.

Anyways I was thinking about turning some aluminum on the lathe to make 
a tool.
Does anyone know the I.D.  and O.D. of the TR4 Cam Bearings??

Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks in Advance Glenn

Out of a new package,

They are not round, the outside diameter varies between 1.840 to 1.850.  The
inside diameter varies from 1.715 to 1.725.

They obviously become round as they are driven into the round bores.  Many
years ago I made an installation tool and used a compressible piece of
rubber that holds the bearing as I drive it in.

Subject: [Fot] Wetliner Engine Cam Bearing Install Problems

Having discovered that the cam bearings in this engine were not installed
properly to line up with the bearing plugs, I was considering making my own
tool to pull new  bearings into the block.

I have used most of the cam install tools on the market including the Lisle
tool currently available. This has been revised since the last time I used
one. The last time I used one had o-rings to hold the bearings. These work
but I'm considering making a simple tool on the lathe.

Anyways I was thinking about turning some aluminum on the lathe to make a
tool.
Does anyone know the I.D.  and O.D. of the TR4 Cam Bearings??

Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks in Advance Glenn

Good Morning FOT

 

Below is the link to the alternator that I use on my racing car.  You should
be able to find at a local parts house or get it online.

The factory soaked the wool felt seals in shellac before they were 
driven into place. Use only a small piece at a time and don't try to set 
the whole seal in one shot.

We have a special tool, per Kas, and tap the seal segments home until we get
100% sealant flow at the bearing block seams.

When all is done per the book and using Chris Marx new Viton seal design,
there are a lot of happy people out there.

I've not tried alternatives, the felt seems to work well 
enough.  3/4" to 1" long pieces of felt dipped in Indian Head or 
Permatex Shellac sealant, mashed into place with something long and 
skinny using a rubber mallet until the shellac oozes out both sides 
of the block.  I use a Phillips screwdriver, others have a special 
trapezoidal tool.  I use a set of needlenose pliers to dip into the 
goo and start into the hole in the main cap.  One thing to note - 
some of the gasket kits in the past had felt that was smaller than 
the hole in the main cap, others included cork instead of felt.  Moss 
sold some felt separately that is the proper larger size.

A key thing that has not been discussed so far is fitting the aluminum piece
to the block using the correct size mandrel so that it is accurately
centered on the crank.  Joe A. sells these that are the correct size and I
think the Moss ones are now the correct size.  The early ones (circa 2008)
were not the correct size and I had to turn my mandrel down to get the
correct fit.  (As I recall there was an error in the Triumph Workshop Manual
dimension.)  I've used Hylomar sealant on the split of the aluminum piece
with good results.  I made the trapezoidal punches out of brass and hammer
them in using about a 2 lb regular hammer.  When the felt starts oozing out
between the bearing block and engine block, I know I'm good.

I use the Permatex Indian Head Gasket Shellac with good results and do as
Tony says.  Lately I've been heating it up in the microwave a bit to make it
a bit more runny so it soaks into the felt better.

Don't get hung up on the source of the felt as any felt cut up into small
strips, as others have recommended, will work.

I was in a pinch, last minute engine assembly, and sent Alison to the thrift
store for some felt. She came back with left over Easter bunny baskets made
out of felt.

Don't laugh, these little bunny baskets are currently holding oil at bay in
the Blake fleet.

Back when I first got into wet liner engines I built my first engine at the
machine shop and he coached me through it. He didn't like the felt seals and
pulled out a box of specialty rope that was designed for this purpose. I use
the felt now, buying extra strips separately so that I can hammer it in
tightly, but I suppose any soft, absorbent and stable cloth would do it well.
I've been tempted to fill the cavity with silicone but haven't tried it.

A key thing that has not been discussed so far is fitting the aluminum piece
to the block using the correct size mandrel so that it is accurately
centered on the crank.  Joe A. sells these that are the correct size and I
think the Moss ones are now the correct size.  The early ones (circa 2008)
were not the correct size and I had to turn my mandrel down to get the
correct fit.  (As I recall there was an error in the Triumph Workshop Manual
dimension.)  I've used Hylomar sealant on the split of the aluminum piece
with good results.  I made the trapezoidal punches out of brass and hammer
them in using about a 2 lb regular hammer.  When the felt starts oozing out
between the bearing block and engine block, I know I'm good.

I use the Permatex Indian Head Gasket Shellac with good results and do as
Tony says.  Lately I've been heating it up in the microwave a bit to make it
a bit more runny so it soaks into the felt better.

Hi,

I haven't read this whole thread, so forgive me if I'm beating a dead 
horse.

As a point of information, the SCCA Solo is now proposing dumping G 
Prepared (where Spitefires are presently competing) and moving rear-drive 
cars to D Prepared. I find the proposed rules change to be curious in that 
the base intent was to fix a problem that allowed a certain dead-ringer 
car to be the to be had car for E Prepared (presently the Dorsey Toyota 
and formerly a couple of really awesomely prepared Mazda rotary-powered 
sedans (RX-3's, I think)).

But I wanted to make two points that I didn't see covered in the thread so 
far.

1. There's competitive and there's competitive. I happen to run my TR6 
totally outclassed by the performance potential of other cars in the 
class. I don't beyatch about it. I just run there. I pick my own targets 
and base my "success" on my relative performance to MY benchmark.

2. I think Triumphs are kool. Just because I think that way, doesn't mean 
that others think so. But I also find the same level of passion with folks 
that run all sorts of different cars - including some that are fairly 
successful. And although it's rare, I still get some really kool 
compliments on my car and I find that immensely satisfying.

The overall point, though, is that if you have a car - ANY car - and you 
want somewhere to play, SCCA probably has a place where you can play. 
Don't get over-worked up about the politics or the rules. Just go out and 
try to have fun. When it is not fun, do something about it or bail. Easy 
as that.

I'm not going to lie, driving a 40 year old car at 10 / 10 th's is a 
freakin hoot. And to the comments regarding reliability, if you dial back 
your preparation in the name of reliability, you can have fun for a long 
time with your Triumph. And it's fairly inexpensive to do so. But if you 
start cranking up the performance knobs, you're going to break stuff and 
there goes your reliability.

Just sayin.

Regards,
rml

Greetings All,
Havent posted in years but I recently purchased a ready to race Spitfire
from Bobby Whitehead.
Needs a bit of work but not too much, so I imagine Ill be posting a lot more
now.

In the meantime, I do have one request. Since I wont be able to race it till
next year, could/would
you guys PLEASE post more of your "in-car" race videos! I find it helps pass
the time till I can get on track.
Thanks so much,
Don

I know someone preparing a live axle TR4 to go racing next year and since Southwick closed he doesn't know what to do for axles. Are Ford axles the answer ? I read somewhere the TR4A live axle is stronger, true ?

so, here's a copy of a thread from a while back, written by John Styduher and Tony Drews.  You can buy the parts Southwick used, cut the axle housing, and have someone weld on the bearing retainers, and for a lot less money and shipping costs.

When did Southwick close?

  Dad sent them an axle about a month ago and has been talking to someone up
there that is preparing a TR4 axle setup for him, at least that's what we
think.

Amici...

I'm old, and forget whether I had breakfast or not, until I look in the 
mirror, but seems to me I remember Jack (or Tony) saying that Southwick was 
shutting down his commercial operations, but would continue to do axles for us 
in his garage (probably for beer money in his retirement).  That's what I 
recall.

I would appreciate any information on the Denso series of alternators

the Chevy Sprint series. (25-30  AMP), or is the Kubota based
tractor/mower series being used?  ( Have seen both suggested on forum

the Chevy Series if that is what would be needed?  Prefer single wire

The 3 wire Denso has #  1247601ND, the Kubota # of the same alternator is
Kubota 16231-24011 (40 amp) With a 1 wire alternator, the ign. Warning light
doesn't work. 3 wires : 1 wire is ignition switch 12V, 1 wire is ign.
Warning light and the 3rd wire is straight to the Battery or, for the
racers, to the BATTERY SIDE of the battery isolator switch. If the 3rd wire
is coupled to the other side of the isolator switch, your car will Stay
running with the switch in the OFF position.

FOT -

I need to select brake and clutch MC's for the GT6 build now.  Not sure if I
should be going with stock sizing or if racing brakes and clutch requirements
make a difference in bore, etc.  I have a Tilton overhung pedal set with brake
bias bar.  Here are the other "knowns":

Brake Setup
Stock front calipers (rebuilt)
Upgraded lines, pads, rotors...but stock configuration
Need dual master cylinders

Clutch Setup (on a TR6 gearbox)
Spec Clutch stage 3
Early Land Rover slave cylinder on a Sprint/Dolomite bracket.
Is anyone running something similar enough to offer a starting point for the
MC needs?  Or can someone shed light on the way to determine the correct MC
sizing?

Thanks,
Chuck Watson

With the tilton balance bar set up you have, two regular Girling 8515 masters with the bar between; and the same Girling master for the clutch. Works very well and allows all the brakes you need. 
The original stock brake setup with a set of p16 calipers and a good set of race pads and always fresh LMA fluid is a fine race brake kit that will allow you to out brake just about anyone out there.

I was using the same thing - recently switched the brake cylinders to the compact Tilton units (75 series).  They fit in the same bulkhead space as the girlings.  I checked with Tilton about mounting the reservoirs at an angle and they said no problem - even at the mounting angle, the plastic reservoirs hold about twice as much as the Girlings do.
I also went to a 0.70" bore for the front brake circuit - a little harder pedal feel, and the larger master moves more fluid volume as is required for the front disc calipers vs the rear drums.

I just broke the left axle this weekend and nearly flipped the car.
In this case the axle broke in middle of the roller bearing position.
Never had heard of that way braking and this is difficult to check, because
you need to pull the bearing ring off.

I know someone preparing a live axle TR4 to go racing next year and since
Southwick closed he doesn't know what to do for axles. Are Ford axles the
answer ? I read somewhere the TR4A live axle is stronger, true ?

I rarely weigh in, but this is one of those times I feel the need to.
Warning, this will be lengthy.

First, let's deal with SCCA track racing. Simply put, our cars aren't that
competitive anymore. They can be pretty good, but the limits of the
technology they are based on, well, has limits. A Spitfire can be fast, but
as said before, how durable is the engine? Now throw in the Miata. Those
aren't any cheaper. A good front running Miata will cost you about 40-48k
to build plus the cost of the donor car. If you want an NA or NB donor,
those are drying up fast for cheap ones. They've already been snapped up
for SM, all the SCCA classes, etc. I happen to know the owner and one of
the mechanics at one of the best MX-5/Miata shops in the nation, and when
they say that, I tend to believe it. Also, most of those race prepped
engines get about half a season from them, then you're in for another or a
rebuild, either way minimum buy in is another 7-15k.

As to the SCCA being concerned with making money and not being a club
anymore, well, reality check: on the East coast it was that way in the late
50's already. Also, the SCCA has dwindling numbers overall due to
ineptitude and also the expense, thus the sprouting up of NASA, Chump,
LeMons, et al. But that's not the issue for this list, it's why are there
fewer of our cars outside of vintage racing? Some of our cars are too
valuable to risk in SCCA racing, either emotionally or financially. A big
part is the rules allowances for our cars haven't been updated in years.
This leads me to another SCCA issue: Autocross.

As you are aware, GP is going away in autocross. I say good. There are many
reasons for this. The top running cars can be competitive in other classes.
Maybe not winners, but definitely will get on stage. Also, as fewer and
fewer of cars of our vintage were campaigned, there weren't enough results
and data to recalculate PAX, as well as address the rules. A great example
is the Spitfire 1500. It would be required to run with a single ZS carb or
take a weight hit. Yet in FSP I can run whatever carbs I want, and I have
no minimum weight. So why go to the trouble of building a GP car when I can
do FSP so much easier?

Furthermore, GP did nothing to help itself over the last few years. 2011
having the class winners break parc ferme rules and cheat put the
crosshairs squarely on the class from the SEB. Then the entire boycott in
protest this past year was the nail in the coffin. Per a good friend who is
on the SEB "when you get mad and throw a 3rd grade temper tantrum and don't
show up, resulting in sparse attendance for the class, you're asking for
the axe. Especially when if they had shown up, we could have used the delta
in the performance data to address changing the class rules. Good thinking
on their part." Now, for some of the interesting parts.

I run a 1978 Spitfire 1500 in FSP in my club. I won the class last year.
One thing I found was that my entry and apex speeds were higher than a
national caliber 99 MX-5/driver combo. I lost ALL my time from the exit to
the entry of the next turn, and the next, etc. One thing bandied about has
been to give GP cars big weight reductions and allow them to run in DP. My
friend on the SEB asked me what kind of weight and induction allowances
they should make. I advised on setting very low weight limits for a 1500
and allowing any carbs the owner wanted. The rest of the rules allow for us
to build a suspension that is legal and competitive imo. Also, the issue of
wheel and tire size arose.

Is the lack of our cars being in more mainstream racing due to the above,
or due to lack of interest as stated elsewhere in this thread? I doubt
there is a lack of interest. I can't go anywhere in my Spitfire without
someone saying they had one, had a friend or relative with one, or they had
a Fiat, or MG, or who knows what other 2 seat Euro car. I think that many
people not only don't know how to get involved with racing, but how to even
find one of our cars for sale that is race ready. Unless you're in the
racing community, there is no way to really get that info. I think outreach
might be a good idea.

These are my observations. But what do I know? I'm just a 42 year old guy
who had worked on and been around these cars his entire life, as well as
various facets of racing. Oddly enough, I seem to be asked regularly about
where to get these cars and how to get started racing them. Go figure.

Mike

Gents,

 

My pictures and videos from the weekend races have been posted.  There are
two main folders; this year and last.  I added a second folder for this
year.  The pictures are arranged by driver.  The videos are arranged by
"Group", but have not been edited yet.  I am short of time and hope to get
them cleaned up and reposted soon, but didn't want to wait any longer to get
the pictures up.

 

I did better than last year, but still have a lot to learn.  The picture
quality is noticeably better, with far fewer out of focus.  I didn't do much
shooting beyond the Groups 3 & 4, so I apologize if you were outside those
two groups and I didn't get many or any pictures.    

 

*	I tried to eliminate all out of focus pictures, but left some (not
too bad ones) where I thought you might still like them, i.e., multiple cars
in the shot.
*	Some of the front straight pictures are out slightly of focus but
were neat, so I included them.  I needed a higher shutter speed and I need
to shoot more from the trackside on that front straight.  
*	Tony Garmy, some of the cars under your tent have folders with
pictures.  Please let those folks know.  

 

Please definitely let me know what photos worked or did not work, so I can
fine tune what I shoot.  Be critical, it's OK.  I can't get better if I'm
not sure where my pictures are not as good as they should be.  I'll be
setting the shutter speed higher next year and concentrating on getting in
closer too.

Looks smooth, both driver and car, quite a speed difference between the TR8
and slower cars.

I'd like to propose Pat McKearn for membership in this un-organization.  Pat
and his brother raced a TR250 with Midwestern Council some years ago and he's
building a GT6 now - for the street, but we know how that goes.

Second?

Yeah...we all know how that goes.  Peter Egan once said something like, 
"RACING makes heroin addiction seem like a wish for something salty."

FOT,

The report that Southwick is closed is quite a surprise to me.  I spoke
to them yesterday and the axle I had sent is completed and on the way back.
 About a 3-4 week turnaround at a cost of $850 plus shipping.  Contact Rob at
robsouthwick@gmail.com or (309) 949-2868.

Cheers,  Bob Blake

I just
broke the left axle this weekend and nearly flipped the car.
In this case the
axle broke in middle of the roller bearing position.
Never had heard of that
way braking and this is difficult to check, because
you need to pull the
bearing ring off.

Betreff: [Fot] Live axle
tr4's, what to do for axles now ?

FoT,
I know someone preparing a live axle
TR4 to go racing next year and since
Southwick closed he doesn't know what to
do for axles. Are Ford axles the
answer ? I read somewhere the TR4A live axle
is stronger, true ?

Turns out my 64 Spit Racer has quite some history.  One of the first to race
her was Ashley Page out of NC.  We connected recently and went through all
the old log books and confirmed he was one of the original people to race in
the (now) #24.

 

He is building a new Spit racer with his grandson, and we hope to see him on
track soon.

 

He and the car are featured, along with some pics, in Kas's book "Historical
& Technical Guide for Triumph Cars".

 

Please second and let's welcome him in.

 

Thanks, 

Dave

Ashley is a geat guy, wondeful mechanic and a real racer.  Happy to give
him he second. He also knows more about running GTP cars that most you
will  ever meet.

Thanks very much to Dave and Kas for getting me into the disorganization. I
appreciate it and looking forward to reading all the valuable information here
- and asking a few questions!

There is a searchable archive available, link at the bottom of each message for
those on the real time list.  Unfortunately it stopped working when my servers got
hacked a while back, you'll notice there are no posts from the last few months in there.
I am going to try to get it working this weekend, didn't get much done on it last weekend.

And welcome aboard, Ashley, as well as Pat McKearn who was also recently added.

mjb.
