Bert2006 Posted October 8, 2014 #1 Posted October 8, 2014 Received from SlowRollWv and installed my carb and twinky covers today. These are very high quality and included all of the required hardware. Only thing was that the choke side cover was a bit though to tighten down. Either screws where a bit long or there was gunk in the threads. Twinkies where easy to install. Did not use any locktight so will monitor to see if anything comes loose. Good quality work sir and thanks for shipping the parts to the great white north.
Mover Posted October 9, 2014 #3 Posted October 9, 2014 I also got the carb and twinkie covers from slowrollvw and had the same issue with the choke side carb cover. I put a plastic washer like those used with hockey helmet mask in behind the carb cover and it's just thick enough for the screw to tighten up fully. They definitely are well made and add to the look.
Bert2006 Posted October 9, 2014 Author #4 Posted October 9, 2014 (edited) Good deal but rules are you must post pics. Man you folks are demanding ...jeeezzzz.... Here are the pics, taken from my phone so not high quality pictures but you can see how the covers clean things up and are so well polished. Edited March 13, 2016 by Bert2006

They definitely are well made and add to the look. You got me thinking and worried that the way I had tightened things up could lead to problems in the future. So I used rubber seals that you get when you buy a universal kit to rebuild faucets. Placed them between the cover and the spacer that SlowRollWv provides with the kit. Now all is snug again, but without things being over thight. Here is what the seal looks like.

I made that request for a pic in Oct 2014. LOL thanks
Bert2006 Posted March 13, 2016 Author #8 Posted March 13, 2016 Good deal. Only took two years. I made that request for a pic in Oct 2014. LOL thanks I had actually responded to the request for pics at that time but they got deleted during one of the more recent maintenance event on the site. It happened to a number of my posts. Just got around to reposting the pictures tonight.
