rogerguzzi Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 Hello Navyguy Yes no problem they are the same poor design as the TR6 mains and big ends can also be done. If the aluminium(monkey metal type) sealing block is not in perfect order get one one the steel ones from the TSSC Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rogerguzzi Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 Hello Yes that's about it, you just need to measure which size you need to get the correct clearance Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Lewis Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 the whole range can be done 'in car' the only variable is on some you need to angle, fiddle , raise engine , shift rack etc to get the pan to clear the oil pump and strainer, as said important to measure the float and compare with whats fitted to get the right thickness , make sure you mark the bearing cap so you keep it the same way round .
