Hi it's totally different shape, the 951 one is more "football" or diamond shaped than round.

Yup i know, but no one makes a diamond shaped cover for the 951.

A round cover is better than no cover which is what mine is now

I am assuming you are going with a stand alone system with coil packs. My sync and ref sensors work off of the points post and cam gear. Gets them out of the way and in a safe location.

Thought I would sow a little confusion.

I have a polished one of these that I'll give away if somebody needs it.

Made it during a DTA FAST stand alone conversion years ago.

I may have used a new dist cap gasket for template, don't remember.

Anyway, I offered one and Jay Wellwood took me up on it, so, going out to him.

Yeah, I machined the trigger wheel to fit the shaved balance gear.

I had/have this whole setup for sale on Pelican with the UK DTA FAST ECU, trigger, harness ECU, coil pack, etc.

A steal for whatever it's posted for.

No takers.

I can make another one of these covers to go with it in about 15 minutes...
