Check your local Triumph or British club.
In the Indy area, try [www.indianatriumphcars.com]
7510 Allisonville Rd., Indianapolis, IN 46250
Tom Beaver, Secretary, TBe749@aol.com
Brett Johnson, Editor, 317-841-7677

See if they have a few leads for you.
Try Craigslist, local then state wide

Try other Clubs around, our clubs lists cars and parts for sale.
[wptriumph.org]
or [www.triumphspitfire.com]

I think the best is 302/5.0 Ford small block, but what ever motor you use to swap, the tranny is the challenge due to the narrow frame on the GT6!

What diff is next?

Go fit it! It is a journey, but well worth it!
