A10 timing covers
« on: 25.12. 2020 13:04 »
  Are all swing arm A10 inner and outer side covers interchangable? For example, will a 58 outer cover with a tach drive fit a 61 engine?

Yes, but probably can't use the tach drive if you have an ATD on the '61.

G'day Trucky.
As Richard says yes. They will all fit from 1950 AA7 and ZA10 to 1962 CA7SS and DA10R. There are slight differences eg tacho drives and the later ones have a boss around the crankcase breather.
