Front Aerovee cooling baffle

Postby Gripdana » Mon Jan 05, 2015 1:00 am

Does the front baffle assemble attach anywhere other then the 4 screws where the meet the sides?

Dana,

There are tabs along the back side of the left front and right front baffles that tucks into the "Super Tin" lower cylinder cooling tins. We put a sheet metal screw through the Super Tin into that little tab/flange to attach the front baffle to the engine. This is of course in addition to the screws along the sides that attach the front baffle to the sides.

Thanks Joe. That is what I thought I was looking at it. I wanted to make sure it was something that was done.
