Title: Engine tag bolt
Post by: cobraboy on June 05, 2010, 04:01:00 PM

Hi Fellas
I have ordeed an engine tag from Marti as I have now researched the numbers.
My question is what did the mounting bolt head look like, I know the thread and would like to get the correct bolt.
Pics would be great
Thanks

It was flat on the top with no markings.  AMK has them.

Thank you.
I ordered from AMK a few months back and now do not have enough to make up another order.
I have trawled their catalogue and found a pic of the bolt and will try to get one localy.
Would the tag have been fitted after the engine was painted or would the tag and bolt have been painted over?.
Sorry to make a meal of this

It was put on after the engine was painted.
