Hey guy's,

 

Those A+ timing covers are becoming pretty rare and expensive.

I'm looking at a A+ motor from Minispares which doesn't come with a timing cover.  Can I use my old A series timing cover on a A+ base plate?

 

I'm not interested in the tensioner because it will be a quality duel chain.

 

Thanks Brad

Yes you can.

 

your cover is rarer than the A+ ones. They are all been cut up and turned into clocks.

IIRC the tensioner holes are in the right place.

the block drilling’s are the same.

Shame you are not a bit closer to sunny Worcestershire. I am scrapping an A+ 1275.
