I remember reading about the L6. Don't think I ever saw one though. A 635 luxury model? I always liked the 635csi, and the 3.0csi before it.

Too bad, the Triumph slant four was a great engine design. They just couldn't build them reliably. Or build a cooling system that cooled. Or build an electrical system that kept working. But the base engine was great. Did you do this conversion yourself? I see you also repowered a Jaguar with a Chevy engine, probably for very similar reasons.

First, the L6 is a 635 coupe that has a ton of Leather inside including the headliner, it also has a dual a/c unit (disaster). After owning the 630 (4speed) I wanted the 635, well it wan't a great car...(all are automatic) i think 400# heavier.
I bought the Triumph with the Buick V6, another disaster...overheating problems, very fast on the straightaway however.
The Jag/Chev is a match made in heaven....I used a John's kit, fantastic
The Jag engine blew a headgasket.
