    Question where to go for P38a spares

    Hi Everyone,
    I am looking for the airbox lid and inlet tubing (including maf) off a 4.6 Thor engined P38.
    Can anyone recommend a wreckers that might have one?

    Thanks

    Pedro

    I won't necessarily be able to help, but your location may help. Assuming it's not "next to didebub and just above Guiness"

    Triumph Rover Spares in Adelaide.


    Matar Motors in Melbourne (eBay seller usually).


    Shop around, prices for parts vary wildly & the professional businesses you'd expect to be exxy are sometimes the cheapest.

    No need on mine, Pete. Mine was already a 4.6 - it was rebuilt and worked.

    Are the parts you need different on a Thor 4.6 to a 4.0?

    apparently---
    the 4.6 has a bigger diameter inlet tubing and maf.
    I am yet to get my head around how the bigger/slower flow makes any difference, but the maf outputs values are different.

    anyone?
