keating520 Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Hi, does anyone know where I can get valves, valves springs and valve guides for a 1943 Triumph 3HW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Geoff Meyers usually has lots of 3HW stuff. I'm sure I've seen valves/springs on his Stall. Kempton Park tomorrow where he usually is. He's the brother of Les at Russells, so you could also ring Les. I have contact details for both if you need them. Ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keating520 Posted October 29, 2013 Author Share Posted October 29, 2013 Thanks for the help have been in contact with Geoff. I have found my bike has early T150 valves fitted to it for some reason. Got some valves so the head will be back soon so I can get the bike back together and take it out for a ride. Does anyone know how to identify when this bike was built the frame number is TL36648?

Ron Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 TL36648 was part of contract S1246 for 2500 bikes built between June-Sept 1943. I calculate your tank census number to be C5205248. Your bike is fairly early in that contract so I would guess a supply date in mid 1943. You should have a frame build date on the top lug under the saddle which should read something like:- TEC 4.43. I just made the date up and TEC = Triumph Engineering Co. Ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
