Spitfire Gasket Under Development A Spitfire gasket is currently under development. I will put a release date here when there is light at the end of the tunnel. Feel free to e-mail me and I will put you on a list of people to notify when it is available. Pricing will probably be the same as the TR 2-4A gasket. I will most likely offer the gasket at a slight discount when first released, so it wouldn't hurt to check back here occasionally. --Justin
TR 4/4A Radiator Fan Shroud Under Development I am in the early stages of developing an ABS plastic (fire resistant!) shroud for the TR 4 and 4A. This would attach to your radiator, on the fan side. This would increase the efficiency of a stock or "tropical" factory engine driven fan. (When your Triumph is not moving, the fan becomes inefficient as it simply sucks air from around your radiator.) I believe this will truly help alleviate chronic cooling problems when caught in traffic or any situation where you are idling for a time.

This shroud would be black. It will look like it belongs there, but, of course, there was no such offering during the 60's for the TR's. Nonetheless, it was known technology of the time, and is thus, not inappropriate. I strongly believe that electric fans should be avoided on cars with stock generators/regulators. By keeping an engine driven fan, you will be keeping the car simple, relatively stock, and easy to maintain. (Those that have electric motors, could still utilize this shroud, provided the diameter is similar or less.)

If this shroud interests you, please e-mail me. --Justin
