Since there is a outward dimple on the 235 cover I heated the 216 cover up and made one on the 216 cover so it would fit better,tomorrow I will weld some nuts on the back of the 216 cover so I can bolt the coil bracket to it. I have taken pics so when done I will post them. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 9,115 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 9,115 | It will be interesting to see it when you are done. It sounds like quiet the disguise! | | | | | Joined: Feb 2003 Posts: 1,382 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Feb 2003 Posts: 1,382 | It will be noticeable to anyone who really knows the motors but I hope it will fool a few of the so called experts that lurk at the shows and cruise ins. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2003 Posts: 1,382 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Feb 2003 Posts: 1,382 | The cover is done and on the motor but dont know how to post pics on here. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 388 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 388 | Jeff, The "Pictures" section in the "Stovebolt Owner's Manual" contains the "official" instructions for posting images. You could also add a link to the images in your Stovebolt-signature webpage, along with that great-looking '37. Hoyt

If you have any other pics on Snapfish, remember, users have to sign up to log in and view the rest.
