these are on a volvo just trying to get a bargainHi Dude,Two types of HS6, differing by air filter bolt number: volvo, 3 bolts, Uk cars: 2 bolts.
Also different from H6 (more anatomical differences: venturi length and fuel bowl).
Any 1.75" or 2" carb will bolt on your manifold without problems.
H6 and HS6 can vary in jet size (0.09 or 0.1") and the needles also vary according to the car. The KD needles from a Volvo 122S 1.75" HS6 SU carb are way off specs for TRs.
Get the SU specs for your specific car and rebuild your HS6's accordingly.
Cheers,

sounds like fun in the tr to me if in doubt flat out me thinksHi with the white stuff all around I was wondering how good a TR4 is like in snowy conditions?I say this as I have a new BMW 520d-fantastic car......... BUT on a totally flat road and 3 inches of snow it was completly stuck today
So (apart from being FUN as the 4 is rear wheel drive) does it have natural GRIP in the same way a Mini an Imp or a Beetle seems to have in slippy conditions?
Just wondering...mines "rugged" up in the garage

DCOE 45s will fit fine if your engine has been breathed-on a bit. If not, get the SUs/ Strommies set up correctly (much cheaper/ fuel efficient/ better bottom-end performance)
If you're buying second hand, check what chokes/ jets/ emulsion tubes etc etc are fitted as it can get very expensive resetting carbs especially if you have to factor in a rebuild too.
Don't forget, the only way to properly get webers set up is to get on the rolling road.
There are faster ways of using unleaded petrol, but not many!
(they do sound awesome though)
Ade
thanks ade want some nice sounds from under the bonnet as im thinking of selling my 5 and havin a works rep made out of my 4 with some grunt hopefully

hi dudes has anyone had a new glass for rear light off moss are they anygood and do they fitt ok

Hi
The Moss catalogue 08A March 2008 page 27 shows the later type master cylinder bracket which has a switch mounting bracket to accept the electrical brake switch ( shown on pages 60/61).
Earlier cars had a brake switch which was operated by the hydraulic system, plate 3-201 Triumph TR4 & TR4A Workshop Manual, and therefore didn't need the additional switch support bracket.
I've got a spare of each type.... so depending on "what you have got " please PM me if you have the wrong one. (I need to weld on a captive nut on the early type )
Bob
hi bob ive got a lhd tr4 ct 10515 L and this came with a a spare pedal box and also a steel rh dash after looking at the spare box its nothing like the tr4 one in the moss book i think it is a lhd tr5/6 box it looks like the one on my tr5 the car is in storage at the moment not at my house so it not easy to say whati have got im collecting parts to convert to rhd and when the car came with a spare box i never realy looked at it and just thougt it was correct i also think that the dash is a tr4a not a 4 in not sure if this can be used i dont no if you can understand any of this cheers gary

hi all is there any differance in the steel dash on a tr4 and a tr4a ive a lhd tr4 which im collecting parts to turn it into a rhd. the car came with a spare steel dash but to day when i tryed the cubby lid on it there seems to be a bracket spot welded to the rh side and on inspection on my tr5 it looks the same as that this looks to me this is for use when the dash has a wooden fascia and the steel cubby lid isnt used .this make me think i have a tr4a dash and not a tr4 .can anyone help and tell me the differance
