It's all earlier in this thread, but it's basically any 2/7/940 with an F or FT engine and an M46 or M47.

For a quick visual check, it should look very similar to the 360 one, but with a larger number of smaller holes in the timing pattern.

cheers

It does yeah. Hence the term dog dish is often used to describe it.

Sounds like you have found one?

I'd expect an auto flywheel to be incorrect. Could be wrong though, anyone?
