Triumph query...

I have a friend who is restoring a pre war Tiger 80 Triumph..

He's looking for valve springs, so the query is..
a)Does anyone know of a supplier for those?..
and b) If not does anyone know if they are the same as 3HW valve springs and if so is there a supplier for those?....

If the springs are not the same as the 3HW does anyone have the Tiger 80 spring part numbers?...

Any information appreciated...Ian..

Re: Triumph query...

Ian the springs for T70, T80 and 3HW are the same and they don't comply with any of the other pre-war range. Inners= E1290 Outers= E1291. Geoff Meyers often had them so I guess you could start with Les, Ron

Re: Triumph query...

Ian, unfortunately the valves are all different. T70= In E1106 Ex E1107. T80= In E1135 Ex E1136. 3HW In E2116 Ex E2115. I don't know if it's anything to do with head or stem diam or type of material or what. I expect Brian can answer some of the queries and might even have a source? Ron
