New Triumph Speed Kit, Tiger & Trophy for 1951



One of the best looking Triumph parts ever made.

This is my alloy close pitch fin motor. It's a 1957 TR5 basically unmessed with since the early 1970's and is in complete ready to restore condition. The carb on it now is a rare Amal 289 with a custom made thick alloy velocity stack, but I also have a dual carb manifold for it and a matching pair of chopped float monoblocs off of a 1967 Daytona 500 that I want to use on it. I need to get a couple other projects out of the way before I get to this one. It's currently stored vertically against the back wall of my garage with a cycle tie down strap holding the neck up.
