Of the 91,850 Triumph TR6s produced, 83,480 were exported, (almost all of them to the United States), so it should come as no surprise that quite a bit of the tuning equipment available today for the TR6 comes from the USA. A case in point is the lightweight flywheel for the TR6 from Fidanza Performance in Ohio.

A Fidanza lightweight flywheel is simple to install when the clutch is replaced and will bring the following benefits:

• Faster throttle response and quicker acceleration
• Additional horsepower to the wheels (reduced parasitic losses)
• Smoother, faster shifting
• Easier braking, better slowing (due to reduced rotational mass)
• Reduced clutch wear and improved efficiency (from better heat dissipation)
• Cost savings and longevity (thanks to Fidanza’s replaceable green friction plate – there is no need
to replace the entire flywheel when worn)
• Potential for increased fuel economy (if you can keep your foot off the gas!)
• Quality and reliability (made in the USA from top grade materials)

A Fidanza lightweight flywheel for the Triumph TR6 can be ordered as part number 172661 and retails at USD$438.91 plus shipping and tax.

DEI put to good use all of its experience when developing the best turbo shields on the market. It is no surprise, then, that it also capitalised on that same expertise when developing the new DEI Wastegate Heat Shields.

The Wastegate Heat Shield features advanced textiles. A Titanium LR outer layer is combined with multiple stainless steel and silica inner layers,to produce what is, without a doubt, the strongest, most heat resistant and precisely fitting shield available.

Wrapping the wastegate/blow-off valve helps to reduce engine bay temperature and minimise the chance of burns when working around the engine. There is the additional benefit of improved turbo efficiency and function whilst the light weight of the Wastegate Heat Shield ensures high performance applications are not compromised.

The DEI Wastegate Heat Shield is suitable for use with the TurboSmart 40mm – 45mm CompGate and HyperGate Wastegates. True riveted tie-downs and stainless wire are included for ease of installation.

Order as part number 10142 at £136.07 plus import tax and shipping.

For the best in turbo heat management and maximum efficiency DEI recommends pairing the DEI Wastegate Heat Shield with a DEI Turbo Heat Shield.

The Ford Type-9 five speed gearbox (also referred to as a ‘Type N’ gearbox in some workshop manuals) was Ford’s first RWD five speed box and was an original fitment in the:

Today, it is commonly used for five speed conversions on older vehicles. However, it is not just suitable for classic Fords, but also for other classic makes such as MG and Triumph as well as for kit cars.

Burton has just taken delivery of a batch of these gearboxes that have been reconditioned using the GBT9200 long first gear conversion kit to Ford original equipment standards. This partial gear kit is designed to lower the ratio of first gear from a short 3.65:1 to a much more useable 2.98:1. The kit includes a brand new mainshaft first gear and a repurposed layshaft cluster that has been modified and fitted with the new first gear.

The Burton Type-9 gearbox with long first gear can be ordered as part number GBT9160 at £2,040.00 inc. VAT as an outright sale with no exchange required.

Mini Spares is pleased to announce it will shortly be receiving stocks of two styles of replacement interior lamps. This will be good news to owners of classic Minis and other BMC models. The original lamps will now be some sixty years old and will probably have tarnished, changed colour considerably and become very fragile. Many will have distorted out of shape and will crack or break when re-fitted, so will need replacing.

In order to accurately reproduce these lamps Mini Spares had to hunt high and low to get the original shade of pure white correct. To achieve this they used samples from customers and a Mini Cooper register member who had original lamps still in their boxes.

The Mk1 interior lamp with a black on/off switch and pointed torpedo ends (Mini Spares part number 14A9148) was used on MK1 model Minis and Elf & Hornet MK2 variants. It also fitted many of the 1959-on range of Austin A55/60 Cambridge, MG Magnette and sibling models.
The 14A9148 Mk1 interior lamp with torpedo ends retails at £31.20 inc VAT.

MK2 Interior lamp with square blunt ends (Mini Spares part number 13H4398) was fitted from October 1964 and retails at £32.40 inc VAT.

Both lamps are due for delivery shortly and should be in stock by the time you read this.

M-Style is now offering a kit to convert a BMW G31 540i Touring into an M5 Touring which BMW never made for the F90… but should have!

• M-Style CS style vented bonnet

• M-Style carbon fibre front splitter (3 piece)

• M-Style carbon fibre side skirt extensions

• M-Style carbon fibre rear diffuser (3 piece)

• M-Style paintable roof spoiler
