Title: What Model
Post by: TBS on September 25, 2007, 03:38:30 AM

My friend has a Triumph engine resurrected from a field in Australia, and wants to know what model it is.
Engine number 409233 TRM
277cc side valve motor with decompresser, head and barrel cast as one. Pilgrim oil pump, 2 barrel brass carb, 1 barrel fuel, other barrel air.

Methinks now after some research it's a model WS 1929-?? 278cc side valve single, replaced model W 274cc in 1929.
