Scope of these tech talks
There are many resources on the Internet today to help solve your LBC problems. Long ago I started collecting entries in mail lists which interested me most. I was member of a Big Healey list and a Triumph list. I have started this 'tech talks' page to organize all the posts from the lists that I keep, the knowledge I gain when working myself and the information I gather here and there. The information I keep is almost exclusively technical and essentially for AH3000 or TR3 and I arbitrarily keep the info that is most relevant for me
Note that I have stopped updating this section of my site around 2002!
