Title: Another head cover question? Post by Bubba1 on 01/24/13 at 13:09:52 The upside down bolt? If I'm not planning on putting the chrome covers back on top of the headcover is it necessary? Seems that's all it held in place thanks

Title: Re: Another head cover question? Post by Dave on 01/24/13 at 13:31:11 You should put a shorter bolt in that location.  It does provide some clamping pressure to the head cover. When I last assembled mine, I put in a threaded rod with a nut welded on the bottom.  When I decide to eliminate those chrome pieces - I can just trim the length of the bolt down and put an acorn nut on top.

Dave, when you use all thread, put the nut on first then back it off after the cut (With a hack saw) to straighten the threads all nice and neat.  ;)
