Hi again. The front engine mounting plates on my Connie don't match each other! I noticed this when I stripped it down but didn't think too much about it until I looked on our host's parts book and they're not in stock. Looking at my Indian Bullet, I'm guessing they're similar enough to fit so I'm thinking of getting Bullet ones. Can anyone confirm they'll fit? Thanks Stephen

Yes they'll fit. Oddly, Connie plates were lighter gauge than the previous Super Meteor ones. Ask our Hosts if they have any second hand ones, including SM or Bullet. Otherwise I might be able to help.

Thanks for the REassurance, Mark. I've just had a look on the 'used parts' section and there are a couple of pairs for sale. Thanks for the offer though! Stephen

No problem. I'm working through a 1959 Connie refurb at the moment so feel free to compare notes!
