Triumph TR6 - TR6 V-8

If any of you are interested in a TR6 with a Chevrolet V-8 that was rebuilt from the ground up, e-mail me as a good friend of mine has one that he is going to sell. It has a CHEVROLET(not FORD)(aka a Z-28 eng.) 302 with a muncie 4-speed, Corvette diff, alum radiator,lakewood scatter shield, alum flywheel, 11.5:1 pistons, solid lift cam, ect. ect. A very good looking car. He is wanting 10,500 for it. The car is in Greenville SC.

Won't let me view the pictures without signing in.

It still states that the file is inaccessable.
DL Harding

I really don't understand. When I click on it, it goes straight to the pics. I can forward pics via e-mail if necessary. I am only trying to help Bill out as he is an invaluable friend to have if you need custom machine work done. And needless to say, my supercharged, EFI, intercooled, air conditioned, serpintine belt driven, (with self adjusting tensioner) TR6 would be dead in the water without.
Gene Holtzclaw

Gene,

I can open the pictures of your car. I can't gain access to the others.Could you e-mail them to me?
DL Harding

I can e-mail them but my e-mail account won't let me send more than one or two at a time. If you can see the car at all in the pics, you ought to be able to see them all.

Ken ,
Check out the British V8 conversion web page, that should answer all of your questions.
Borgensen are the best but cost $$$, Sweet are I think
just as good but cheaper. I have both makes on my conversion.
