I meant the centre bolt hole alignment for the key. It's offset and will only fit one way round. There used to be an issue with uprated clutch covers and working with the MPi as the drilling was wrong to fit the boss, so you ended about 30 degrees out for timing. It's been resolved now on the minispares cover and it can be used with the MPi.

No worries chap. I believe it can be a bit of a problem when people rebuild MPi's, so hopefully it'll help a few more people in the future.

I removed the clutch and flywheel for inspection and indeed it can only go on one way. I now know timing isnt my issue.
Thanks for your input though folks. Mark
