Thanks Mark, thats clear on the block post studs, I misread Harry's post.
Yes, both blocks are marked A but installed opposite - would this be right or OK? Can't seem to figure this out from the Blue Book?
Thanks

Re: NYLOC nut types
Thanks for the information guys, really helpful.
My only query is on the rocker nuts - If I've read your post correct Harry then you say the 7mm rocker nuts are not Nyloc - but I seem to have them installed, perhaps a previous owner upgrade?
Thanks again.

Re: Carb inlet rubber mount
Thanks for the information George, I did see the earlier post and have been trying to track down the 'black' sleeve. I get now how it all connects, although installing ready-made OEM/replica sleeves would be my preference if they still exist. I'll drop Mdina a note now that I am a bit clearer on the...

Mine's cracked and I am struggling to find a replacement (any ideas?). That said, I notice that a lot of people convert this carb type...

Re: 31/2 Front Forks - Damper Rod Bolts
Hi Guys, Thanks for your tips. I eventually found a long piece of steel rod and ground the end to a taper so it would 'jam' in the hole of the top of the damper rod whilst I tightened up the bottom bolt. No idea of torque, but not that high as eventually the damper rod would turn even with the taper...

Re: 31/2 Front Forks - Damper Rod Bolts
