No, I don't think so, only the BSA/Triumph manuals & parts books etc. as AN owns JR Technical Publications.

+1 for Kim's CDs. I have them for Norton, Triumph, and BSA, and they are absolutely full of all the service manuals, parts lists, service notes, tuning notes, etc. you could ever want.

I'm reasonably sure there isn't any "BSA/Triumph triples rebuild" DVD available at the moment.

I looked at a Trident a few years ago, it was cheap however only had 4 gears. It looked like a long expensive road to make a decent bike out of it. I always start at the gearbox and I believe that Phil Pick made a conversion which improved the ratios in the 5 speed Triumph box. The crank is also a problem, apparently it tends to unwind the twist which is put in it during manufacture. The extremely fast Trident I saw had the back of the crankcases welded up where the motor had done a number on itself. Not an easy project however it would be a boomer thing to ride.
I would keep the motor fairly standard however fit the best race cam and pipe, then work on the gearbox and handling, and you could end up with something very pleasant.
 
Solved every problem.
The Rocket 3 project is aborted.
The owner, a friend of mine, at first decided to rebuild the bike (and so i looked for the workshop manual for him) after to sell it and askes 4000 euro.
The buyer to which I offered  the bike for him was fill of expletives against me!!!
Now lying in my garage and it will remain for everlasting memories!!!
Ciao.
