Hiya Chris,

I'm not seeing any under pulley tin on your engine and you seem to already have the main pulley installed.  You definitely want that tin in place.

Also you have an empty hole in your rear tin for the pre-heat elbow.  Are you planning on adding that later?  Looks like you may have some clearancing issues with your exhaust in fitting that elbow.

Hi Chris

Yes there should be tinware that can only be installed before the crankshaft pulley..
marked A in the photo.. part number B is usually missing these days..

Its good seeing colors appearing in the engine bay too...

Thanks for the help guys.  Sorry I havent answered sooner.  I have pulled off the pulley and I am replacing the sheet metal behind it.  I have been overwhelmed with work lately.  Only a little work at a time with the bug.  Spare time, as if I have some... ;D ;D ;D

I will try to post some of the pictures of my chassis soon.  It is currently under going an overhaul.
