Thanks, no they were just in reach to test fit, the bolts will be the stainless cap Allen style, so plenty strength.
...The cock up fairy also paid me a visit and managed to give life to one of the shims that goes under the valve springs and it merrily hopped off outside, never to be found again...
Thanks vsop
A little more progress today. I got the PMA fitted and TDC marked up. I fitted the Pamco - a little bit fiddly at times and one of the locators on one of the balance weights from the advance mechanism broke off. Wasn't a problem, as I still had the originals. The rotor had bound against the cam when tightened too and I had to machine a little shoulder to give it clearance. Nothing major, just fiddly.
