Re: Van repairs Hi Rob i didn't look well enough to your picture of the engine. It is indeed a model with cast cylinders but it doesn't have the heaterflaps yet. So you are on the lookout for a part like AZ643-3 from the bottom picture above. But you our model is different because cast cylinders are thicker than the turned ones from the older versions. There is always a possibility to cut and reshape a flap heater thingy into a older type one. I wanted to try that on my spare engine but than my original engine was ready to put back in the car. So the top part has never been on there on your engine and isn't missing. Apart from the little angled tin plate betwwen the fan tunnel and the head. But as you have half of everthing that is missing you have a template to rebuild them for the other side..

Re: Van repairs  P1010418 by Robndaisy, on Flickr  P1010419 by Robndaisy, on Flickr All I've got to do now is knock up the tube and it's fiendish little bolt hole, all on the radius . I nearly made a copy of the template instead of a mirror image   P1010420 by Robndaisy, on Flickr. Where's a Tinsmith when you need one .
