Hello to all of you!
I know that a sketch with dimensions of the bridge plates by Frank Griffin has been in MPH many years ago.
Does anyone of you know the number of MPH where I can find this sketch, or even better has somebody got a scan or picture of it which he could share via the forum?
I was looking through old issues a couple of days ago, very interessting indeed. I spent the best part of five hours reading (a good part of the series "how to wear a Vincent out faster") and in the end stopped because I forgot what I had been looking for.
Must be the age thing setting in.

you help is very much appreciated.
Bernd

Bernd, I don't have dimensions but beware that some of these produced in England have round 3/8" holes at the top and the same shaped 1/4" holes at the bottom. This is wrong as the examination of an original part shows. The original four holes were actually slots. Funnily, the original slot for the balance beam stop became a hole when the balance beam stop was redesigned to an eccentric shape.
