About to have a couple of modified head gaskets made  for a TD 21 to direct more water to the rear of the cylinder head(for hotter driving days) By restricting   water flow travelling across the block and  by passing the rear cylinders. Water Inlet side of cylinder head has curved slots which transfer too much water thru block to exhaust side triangular ports then thru thermostat to radiator inlet.  Question is how much to restrict the curved ports  ? understand  a little restriction can have a large effect.   Story of Red triangle   3rd Edition P 418 comments the cylinder heads were modified for the last  3L TF21s    Any one had this modification done your  comments would be most appreciated.  John Speight Posted by john speight 13/08/2013 03:34:26
