To all,
Of course Douglas' bombshell that the threads were 5/16 BSF (according
to Ed Woods) sent me directly to the basement to check a spare
transmission case that I have (after all, we have been assured for the
past how many years that all of the fasteners in the XPAG/XPEG engines
and the transmissions are all Nuffield Mad Metric). Sure enough, the
threads for those two positions are 5/16 BSF, but ONLY for those two
positions, the rest of the threads in the case are Mad Metric, with 8 X
1mm being the large majority of threads. We now all have a great tidbit
of trivia regarding the TDs & TFs that will come in handy for winning
bar bets. Thank you Douglas and Ed.
Cheers,
Dave
