I am currently having my bonnie engine rebuilt.
About five months ago I approached Allen's performance parts to supply race valve's springs etc ,some item they did not have in stock so I decided to wait ,until they were, before they delivered. They now say they no longer supply most of these items. I no that Kibblewhite Precision Machining are the manufacture's but have been unable to contact them in U.S.A.
Does anybody have contact for them or no Uk distributer.
My current upgrades for my engine are:-
Lightened crank and balanced, half race cam, polished con-rods,belt drive, hydraulic clutch ,black diamond valves,Ampco 45 guides,alloy pushrods,alloy pushrod tubes conversion to early downpipes so I can fit Norton pea-shooter silencers.
Makini carbs but I assume I will have to change jets etc because of silencer and half race cam.Any other suggestion s on upgrades etc welcome

Sounds like you have a nice machine in the making!

I'll see if I can dig anything up.

maybe you can try british spares in new zealand .
see http://www.britishspares.com/
they are quick and have good prices.
maybe a morgo oil pump for abetter lube and cooling.after runnin in(2000 miles )put synthetic oil ,you'll don't be deceived.

Hi,
GrandPaulZ thanks for your interest any info would be helpfull I have an address of 580 H Crespi Drive Pacifica.Ca 94044 hope this makes sense I also spoke to L.P.Willaims who, had in the past delt with them but no longer, and had no contact for them,he did mention that they were slow with replys
peintremondain thanks for e-mail for britishspares, morgo pump is one of my mods but forgot to mention it.
I spoke today with Alistair Hillaby Triumph Specialist how carries out Oil filter conversion Kits, the timming side cover is altered to take the oil to external filter and returned back to the engine thus improving filteration he also suggests lightening and polishing rockers which are fitted with side spacers instead Thackeray washers.
