Snoozin replied to SunnyCoupe's topic in Upper North Island Region
Hope it goes ahead as promised, so far it's all "could be's" and there doesn't seem to be anything confirmed as far as attendees go. -

Yep I love it. I really want a B310 and have for years but for some reason keep on ending up with Triumphs. -
Snoozin's '79 Two Point Five S (It's for SPORTY)
Snoozin replied to Snoozin's topic in Project Discussion
Shit I like the idea of that. -
This car was being a real dick, and not keeping much of it's oil inside the bit where it should keep it, as a general rule. So I thought I'd replace the rear main and some other seals and gaskets. Here's my step by step picture guide to doing this. Sealz. by Richard Opie, on Flickr End. But yeah I also stuck a new clutch in it and stuff, because why not eh? End result was it still leaked from the spin on filter adapter. With some research it turns out that my filter adapter was the old type, and the seal surface that mates up to the center of the filter spindle or whatever you want to call it was fixed. Now there is a discrepancy on these blocks, between the outer and inner seal surface heights of the original cartridges because machining tolerances sucked. So these old style adapters had no way to take up this difference and leaked. A lot. I bought an updated type with a floating/spring center flange bit thing from Chris Witor in the UK (boss level service I will add) and fitted it up. Working. by Richard Opie, on Flickr Working. by Richard Opie, on Flickr So then I took it for a burn and it seems pretty good so far. I think I cocked up and forgot to take the old large O-ring out so now there is 2 sitting in the groove so I probably need to sort that out. But that's a 10 minute job tbh. Kerbside by Richard Opie, on Flickr Then I did this, they're not finished yet but not much left to do. Caps are sadly rooted. Enkeez by Richard Opie, on Flickr Tridents. by Richard Opie, on Flickr Happy happy joy joy. Summer Trumpin' is looking up.

Chuck a pic up of the wheels, chances are you just need a set of shank type wheel nuts, not the taper seat the car will have factory.

I lost one. Just a 1/2" UNF nut, it's currently still missing as I deemed it unnecessary. -

When they dropped the PI model in '75 I guess they wanted a new 'flagship,' so they chucked power steer, swaybar, alloys and emissions spec SU HS6 carbs at a 2500TC, added some blackout "SPORTS" accentes and created the S.
