Nice looking timing wheel!
I remember my old 1959 Triumph TR-3A had a engine with a wet sleeve desihn. It was nice because you could just about rebuild the engine indefinitely. Starndard-Triumph designed the car to use as many spare parts as they had on hand. One of them was the Ferguson Tractor engine leftover from when Standard built tractors. They shorten the stroke and made a few more tweaks then mated to a 4 speed manual transmission with an available optional .8 to 1 overdrive sandwiched in between. My car had the overdrive it was nice. Back when the speed limit was 55 you had to get up to 60 to kick the OD in and then drop to a high idle to run at 55. If only they had used an independent rear axle like the TR-4A had instead of the solid axle it would have been a lot hard to roll. Their was an old racer who said the TR-3 could be rolled pulling into your garage.
