The early Tasmin/280i cars used a small round Lucas relay with DIN pin out.
I recently ordered some Tr6 horn relays type 6RA with C1,C2,W1,W2 pin out from the
Roadster Factory. They sent the type 26RA round, red DIN/ISO pin out relays.
The relays came with
two brackets, one to match the mounting holes of the old 6RA style and one with a single hole,
like you find in driving light kits. Even more interesting, these relays had both the
normally open 87 contact and the 87a normally closed contact making them very usefull.
These relays come in a box labeled SRB411 Relay 26RA and have a Roadster Factory P/N LUSRB411. The Roadster Factory calls these T78S5G3 RELAY,HEADLAMP,HORN. |
All of these wheel bearings can be purchased from Motion Industries (formerly Berry Bearing), which is owned by the same holding company as NAPA.

Update October 15, 2004
I have a concern that the replacement I listed shouldn't be used. It appears that they are not compatible with Castrol LMA hydraulic fluid. The seals appear to round off and the fluid gets opaque black in color. The first one I had did OK, lasting over a year. But I replaced it with another one, thinking it was some old fluid, and it lasted only about 4 months before I lost the clutch action. I didn't think that any rubber seals were not compatible with LMA.
Another thing, there is no rebuild kit for the Wilwood master cylinder and the cost of the Girling clutch master cylinder has come down to only $18 more or so.
On the other hand, if people used DOT 5 in all their hydraulics it would be fine -- especially if there ever is a shortage of the real British master.
Also, remember that DOT 5 (silicon) fluid is hard to fine.
I wonder if the seals are for DOT3 fluid. Do the circle track
boys use DOT3? I doubt it. Perhaps the maker should label them
for DOT 5 only..... I think there are reasons that we tell the
stories about using Castrol LMA (or even better -- the old Castrol
-- "Castrol Crimson" -- now that was great brake fluid and pretty
too!), but I doubt even British cylinders have natural rubber
seals anymore. I think that stopped years ago -- probably in
the '70s. I have never heard that Castrol LMA can't be used in
synthetic rubber equipped systems --- only that regular America
brake fluid can't be used in natural rubber equipped systems.
There are few of those left.

I also just bought a complete Fel-Pro gasket set on Ebay for a
Bronco II 2.8. It looks like most of the gaskets and seals will work
on the Tasmin. The exhaust manifold gaskets and the gasket between
the heads and intake manifold won't work but I think that's about
it.
Corrections and tips should be sent to CRC

Notes
The Ford Capri was sold in North America as the Mercury Capri. Early models used the
2.6 litre engine with two port heads. Later cars had 2.8 litre motors
with three exhaust ports. All Mercury Capris used carbs, never fuel injection.
The Pinto, Mustang and Ranger used versions of the 2.8. There are probably detail
differences between those engines and the Capri units. Later the European Capri was
dropped and the Mustang was sold as the Mercury Capri.
