More RS stuff for BIGCAV

[GTS]

I bought a set of spark plug lead retainers that are supposed to clip onto the rocker cover of a V8.....like I said "supposed to". They do not stay on because the little finger part that is supposed to lock onto the bracket is not cut square....its a bit hard to explain but ask Dave Ryan about them, I showed him when he was at my place last year.

iv made a little photo, is this the problem?

i have 4 v8's, hq and 3 commodores at my disposal but none of them have any original clips to compare against

do you have a sample of an original?

The top one has an angle on the locking tab which keeps slipping off the bracket. Its the same as the ones I bought off RS.
The bottom one looks like it would do the job.

the top one is a Rare spares clip i snapped to take a photo of, the bottom is a photoshop of a possible fix

i need to try and source a sample before i can fix it cause i also want to check the angle of the tabs too, they run in parralel but i think they should angle towards each other more so that when it gets clipped over the bracket there is a sort of spring tension also holding it on

if anyone else reads this and has a sample please let me know, im trying to source one now

cheers

That would be perfect.
