Why is it the Mrs always seems to find out when I've made a silly mistake like this, and cost myself money.... :-[ :-[ :-[

Never get that from her in doors. I always get: "when are you going to finish that bike so i can give it a thrash". You old boys do not know how good you have got it.

Ash, they are all numbered/letterd even the early ones but i have found from experience that it is possible to swap just the caps, sometimes they fit better by turning them round.

i have found that if when you drop them on there is no "step" from cap to carrier at the bearing surface they will run happily. Way back when the shop i worked for used to keep on the shelf carriers, cams and followers for two engines and we had a man who would spend hours grinding the cam bearing surfaces and boring the carries then fitting pegged half roun bronze bushes, but he gave up years ago
