Both my Estate and Midge run 4 hole diffs.. 3.89 in the estate, 3.63 in the Midge.

I have the 1500 engine with 3 rail overdrive in my 13/60. I had to fit a small removable tunnel section. I seem to recall it was marginal, but I don't have ET fingers, so went ahead with the mod.

I've just successfully done this..  https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00MUO7RSC/ref=pe_3187911_185740111_TE_item  cut out the centre hole after marking with dividers or similar. Mount the rim plate with the incomplete gasket to the bonnet then fit the chrome surround. use a white marker to show where to cut the outline. Dismantle, cut with sharp stanley knife and jobs a good 'un.

I don't mind paying the postage if the seals work.  Baines's web page does show the postage costs, so forewarned..

I've just bought some from Baines (DX73).  Not fitted yet, but offering up a short length seems to be a vast improvement over the closed cell type.

Well done!  You wouldn't enjoy fitting a new cable anyway...  ET fingers needed.

I have just sorted this problem out on my 1500 engine (twin Strombergs) in the Herald project...  The outer cable was kaput, stretching as I pushed the knob in.  New cable, problem sorted.  The only downside is a mismatch in the knob position, (sitting at about 5 past 7...) Purchased from a major Triumph parts dealer.

I got this from ebay..  https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/S5-001-Bosch-Equivalent-Car-Battery-Type-063-S5001/201725072838?epid=2014575951&hash=item2ef7c055c6:g:2ogAAOSwNSxVJ93f

I had some surplus PVC coated 6mm i/d copper pipe from when I fitted an LPG kit to my Midge. It's looking good on my Herald chassis, just needed 9mm 'p' clips. Also available in 8mm i/d.  Probably available from any reputable LPG system supplier.
