Chris59 Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 (edited) Alan, what's wrong with your TR' head, is it damaged without hope of repair ? Can't it be weld locally ? Edited December 29, 2012 by Chris59 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Andrew Smith Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 Alan, What carbs and inlet manifold are you planning to use, as you may be better off fitting a 4A head if using HS6s and the 4A inlet manifold? - TuRK has these 4A bits fitted and goes like stink. I've asked my mate Alan (owner of Cox & Buckles) to see what he's got in his lock-up, but it may take a few days or so before he can check. Cheers Andrew Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chris59 Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 Or try Walter P. (don't know his name exactly, sorry). ? I think Neil (known as NTC here) has got his number. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alec Pringle Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 Don't Panic . . . . . there's always a Plan B. We're working on it. Cheers Alec Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew Smith Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 there's always a Plan B. We're working on it. Alan, Alec I've had a root around and I have TuRK's orginal high port head (No: 302137) - Alan, you are welcome to use it and either replace it when I need it or until something better comes up?

ianc Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 Walter's surname is Petchey (I think that's the correct spelling) - try a search on the Forum, it might reveal contact details. Searched and found! Walter Petchey, 01376 342724. Ian Cornish Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alec Pringle Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 Now sorted, Kiwifrog's Xmas Panic over, he can knuckle down to it again in the New Year . . . . . . Cheers, Alec Quote Link to post Share on other sites
