If you use the Magna intake manifold, It wont be a problem.Superscan811 wrote:5. The Magna dizzy will fowl on the RWD thermostat housing.
You could use the pulley, but you'd have to make a new timing mark on it.Superscan811 wrote:6. You will have to use the RWD front pulley because the timing mark on the FWD is in a different position.
The pulley that is attached to the cam that connects to the water pump is only held on with a bolt. Once removed, it will stick out of the head a little, but not enough to hit anything.Superscan811 wrote:7. If you are going to use the magna cam, you need to cut off the rear section that used to attach to the Magna water pump.
Does the Carb Magna manifold have the thermostat housing at the front of the engine?Cottees wrote:If you use the Magna intake manifold, It wont be a problem.Superscan811 wrote:5. The Magna dizzy will fowl on the RWD thermostat housing.

The thermostat housing is on the same place on the TM-TS Magnas, EFI or Carbie. The other day I took a radiator hose from my TR EFI parts car and put it onto a TR Carbie.Superscan811 wrote:Does the Carb Magna manifold have the thermostat housing at the front of the engine?Cottees wrote:If you use the Magna intake manifold, It wont be a problem.Superscan811 wrote:5.

I have never looked.
If not, you would also have to either modify the manifold or re-plumb the radiator hose to the back of the engine.
I'm trying to use the TR Magna roller rockers and reground cam but the cam seal isn't enough to seal the back of the head. It's still spits out oil every now and then. So annoying! Maybe I fitted the cam seal the wrong way around?rob020 wrote:ive got a 2l sigma cam in my magna head and a welch plug sealing the hole....
and a fwd carby manifold plumbed to the front with 3 joined hoses![]()
i think you forgot the welch plug for the fwd water pump hole too
