8RT meant to be used with 8RT pulley.
Appreciate your reply. So it needs to be refitted and not just closed off?
I realize the 8RT is meant to be used with 8RT pulley, But my query was about the ability to have the timing pointer at the upper location where it is now or located at the lower location. This obviously alters timing setting dependant on 8BA or 8RT set up?
