Hi Michael and Ray

Michael your comment seems to be bang on regarding dimensions.  The guide
that Roger Moment produced for Anderson and Moment provides only an
index  to type and finish; the booklet prepared by  Todd Clarke  based on
a "parts information bulletin" from  BMC provides dimensions of various
fasteners for the day.  But still missing is the marriage between the Parts
manuals and dimensions.  That is unless our  resident author in Kurrajong
Heights, NSW,  or the Black and White Healey maven might have this
ethereal data source.

Kind regards
