Look what I've found in the shed

It's a brand new engine for my GT6! This has been lying around in my parents garage for too long. Last weekend it was time to release them from the last bit of Triumph. A rather heavy bit as some might know. Luckily the engine is in bits which makes it easier to carry around. I bought this engine a couple of years ago from a chap in England who used to race a GT6. He prepared this engine to fit his racer, only due to family commitments it never happened, The block has been prepared to a high standard and comes with a brand new crankshaft, camshaft and pistons. The cylinderhead has been ported and fitted with new valves and springs. Plan is to EFI the GT6 by using PI throttle bodies on a single throttle. First I will put the block together, which is a nice start to the full rebuild of my GT6.

Hallo Roger,

ik las met veel interesse jou blog en wou je iets vragen. Ik heb zelf een GT6 MK2 van bouwjaar 1970.
De wagen diende te worden gekeurd en ze vroegen mij de plaats van het chassis-nummer te tonen. Dit kon ik helaas nergens vinden. Heb jij enig idee waar dit staat en hoe het eruit ziet.

Alvast veel dank voor je reply.

Mvg, Tim De Sloovere
