I like the idea of a thicker pin so that goes on the todo list and does anybody know a source or application for the big thread on cover?
Harry, I think you will find that the cover is just an ordinary Ford gearbox tower cover. Any Ford gearbox top will fit, so have a look at those gearboxes out the back for a good one. Cheers Rick.
