If you're looking for someone reasonably close, try http://www.snooksdreamcars.com/

Just off of I-75 in Bowling Green. The guy to contact is Terry Stetler. He's the lead mechanic out there, and handles Jeff Snook's vintage tr-3 race car, as well as the Coventry Climax in their Lotus 11. He knows his stuff, he's a good guy, and he also drives a nice BRG tr-3.

Also, not too far outside of BG is John Mills at http://www.northcoastsportscars.com/

Don't know if he does alot with Brit stuff, but he could build you a nice bridge- or peripheral-ported 12a. Just because we all know you want one...

There's another guy in Toledo who might be worth checking with, but I'll have to do a little digging to find his contact info. Last time I was at his shop, he had a couple Jag E-types there and was also working on a Daimler sp-250.

Granted, those aren't Triumphs, but AFAIK the only real differences are where the oil leaks originate.
