    Stainless exhaust for 2000TC - What to look for and where?

    Thanks Guys; I am glad I asked the question now. I do a fair bit of cycling and have found that stainless steel wheel spokes are also prone to brittle failure, and had hoped that the fractures were due to my immense power but you seem to have destroyed that theory! Perhaps mild steel is the...

    Unleaded - 2000 TC on unleaded

    Hi All; I have aquired a 1971 2000TC which the vendor assured me would run unleaded. Posts in other sections of the forum indicate that only the V8 will do so without modification. There are no receipts in the substantial vehicle history to indicate that head modification has been carried...
