Ford V6 Triple Carb Air Box (RS 3100?)

[TVR_owner]

If all else fails in the search for a complete one, manufacture is an viable option. Anyone know where such a beast can be found??

Intend to run remote filters and have bonnet modified to clear carbs and an air box up to 6" deep. The carbs are on a correct equally spaced manifold.

Cheers Neil,
I've popped an email off to them so we'll see what comes of the enquiry.

I'm at Cadwell on Tuesday and a certain Mmr GA Jon and I will set about a triple carbed taimar with tape measure and sketch pad just in case nothing can be found...

John's engine is a very rare diesel blocked variety with large clearances and only John can get it to rattle past 7000RPM

I do believe that Ric wood were able to expand their entire engine machining and casting facilities entirely due to Johns expenditure. Be very careful with john though. Once he finds out that he has befriended a like minded tractor engine enthusiast you will get no peace

That engine is obviously from a Fordson Major, they had blue engine blocks and 4 pulleys to drive the threshing machine

Its also a little known fact that when removed, the belts when measured end to end stretch almost all the way round Mr Livesys beer fridge.
Wasn't it a roadmaster that had the blue threshing pulleys

While we are on about engines etc. Simon and John have been working on mine:



Car is coming along but a little frustrated as to my progress at the moment
