Hi Neil,

The tacho was driven from the redundant distributor drive (not the oil pump as on earlier engines) but I have no pictures of it. Thanks for the offer(s) and I will contact you by phone shortly.

Regards,

David

Thanks to group members I now have tacho drive and instrument. Only item outstanding now to complete whole airframe is the steering yoke and wires. Does anyone have these items available for sale?

Neil,

I have manufactured a new yoke to drawing but cannot seem to master bending wire accurately enough to complete the assembly.
