The stem works either way round and the mirror can be fitted to either side of the stem as well. The black escutcheon isn't quite symmetrical however so may leave a witness mark if turned the other way. That was a !@#$% of a find on those mirrors!

If the doors are original the holes are already there

I was told many years ago by Darryl Uprichard of Racetorations that they set all their floats to 5mm. ( This must only apply to the brass type. ) I did this with my triples and it made a critical difference. Later I got a clear gauge to measure the fuel depth from the top of the well ( where the main tube screws in - remove to check ). I found that 5mm with 3-ring vintage Italian 40DCOE-18s this gives 27mm depth. Oddly, older 40DCOE-18s with brass shafts on another engine gives 27mm with a setting of 8mm. Such depth is the key to when the main systems enters the game, the higher the

This is a work of art in its own right and it's obvious with circa (20) sections welded together it's not commercially viable. Richard Good's " inability " to build it in stainless must mean " for an acceptable price ". From what I've seen on this thread the GOODPARTS design in coated mild steel is still the competitively priced best performance option. I would be quite surprised if he doesn't know whether the RHD cars will accommodate it, less surprised if they cannot. I have no financial interest and provide this link just FYI: https://www.goodparts.com/product-ca

6-3-1 pairing 1-6,2-5 and 3-4 gives them equal firing order spacing. Richard Good's version has equal length primaries and secondaries which he tested against Phoenix's version where they are apparently unequal and found a big difference in his favor. The downside is Richard " cannot build it in stainless " ostensibly due to the metal's relative reluctance to bend into the tight radius required for 1 & 6 cylinders where mild steel can. He has his " ceramic " coated in (3) different temperature ranges. I have experience with this on my trick engine with very high lift cam and triple DC
