Ok so following on from here, Mrs R-III-R Turbo took me on a "reconnaissance" mission to the Triumph factory in Hinckley UK yesterday for St Patrick's Day.
I had prepared to film the whole 1.5 hour tour in 4K @ 60fps on a GoPro for you guys but they wouldn't allow cameras inside the factory...

So I had the engine removed and disassembled. Although the
fault was with the defective cylinder head...
