Haven't been on this forum for a long time. Have been busy rallying a MK1 Escort Twin Cam and enjoying my Healey 100. I was also competing in a Triumph Hérald Coupé.
I'd like to come back into the Triumph fold and I'm thinking of a TR3 small mouth. I'll say straight away that I know nothing about these cars so the Forum seemed a good place to start.
I'd be looking to compete in rallyes though not as competitive as the ones I have been doing in the TwinCam.
So a few questions;
1. What would be required reading to learn the pros and cons of the TR2/3 (I already have The works Triumphs by Graham Robson)
2. How easy is it to get more performance out of the engine? And is the suspension / roadholding good in standard form.
3. I have seen a TR3 advertized here in France with a "Le Mans" head. What is that?
4. What are the weak points to look out for?
That's enough to get started !
Thanks in advance for your input
