[Vwdiesel] New Project

[Brian and Ruth Decker]

Hi Ray:

                If you can fit a Mitsubishi 2.3 turbo diesel in the TR6 it
will make it rip.  I have a 1983 Mitsubishi Mighty Max 2.3 turbo diesel 4
wheel drive pickup. It is retired right now waiting for me to score a tranny
since I lost 4th gear on the 5 speed tranny.  The 2.3 turbo diesel would
make a TR6 fly. It runs great in the 4WD pickup. I also have a 1983 2 wheel
drive Mitsubishi Mighty Max with a bad tranny and an engine that is minis
the head since I used it to fix the 4 wheel pickup which when I bought it
had a cracked head.

Hey Brian and all, sounds like an enjoyable car at a low investment.
 
let me join in your enthusiasm. while i am excited about a diesel cabby am
just finishing. I to have a dream of having a sports car that gets 50mpg. I
really enjoy the 
tr6 triumph, and would love to install one of the 4cyl rear wheel drive
trans combo's like the mitsu's ford used in the 
pick up. Does anyone here have an suggestions of other engine options.
