Aren't the club doing them? TD fitchetts def do them. I got mine from there earlier this year. Think I paid about £135.

as explained above, the Sprint was not fietted with an exhaust manifold gasket.<br>
<br>
However, should you wish to fit one for whatever reason, they are available from Moss. Cannot remember the part number but think it is a TR7 item?? I used it on a previous Sprint that had a custom 4:1 manifold ...

Sorry, should have said that the above are for Sprint only. Have no idea about the others.

Seem to recall a posting recently about engine numbers, and although the answers were naturally correct, I don't recall an explanation as to what the suffix HE meant after the engine number.<br>
<br>
I found it just a few minutes ago...HE means high compression. Strangely the code LE is also given ...

Whilst looking for an answer to Aluns 1500HL questions I stumbled across the production numbers for the Sprint. I think this answers those few who question weather the first 2000 were all Mimosa:<br>
<br>
1973 - 5446<br>
1974 - 4232<br>
1975 - 3589<br>
1976 - 4035<br>
1977 - 2554<br>
1978 - 1352<br ...

Ooo, good question(s) Alun.<br>
<br>
Having a quick read through the front of the Rimmers catalogue I can only come up with "in March 1976 Triumph rationalised the range of cars" and it then shows a table which includes the Dolomite 1500HL.

The club do indeed supply a modern flasher unit. It takes only a couple of minutes to fit and comes with instructions. The only additional thing you will need is a short length of cable for the earth.

Let the public, who have no idea about our cars, vote? (Ooo me uncle Del used to ave wun ov them 2000's, nice cars aint they?) No thanks. <br>
<br>
Public vote for public award is ok but if we are to have anything like a concours then we owe it to ourselves, and the entrants, to have that voting ...

that the metal contact on the condenser leads (black/ orange wires, that connects to the points) is fully insulated from the baseplate.

...seem to recall that the early Dolomite bodied 1500fwd were shiny bright (up to about 1972?) but that the 1500HL were certainly black. Any feedback from 1500 owners to clarify?

they are some sort of aly and should be satin black.
