Sandcast valve cover question
« on: October 10, 2018, 07:56:46 pm »
This is on a 4000 serial number sandcast . Does the part by the tach bolt look right ?
 It sort of looks earlier to me.

 That does look odd, the tach screw boss should be flush, no baffle on the vent inside the cover. Waffle pattern inside? I'm no expert. The sandcast site has a thread on them. 5511 or 2695 didn't look like that.

If you love it, set it free, if it stays it's probably one of my 750's.
