Mark Rowe Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 Question from a newbie….. would this timing strut be OK for sprinting and hill climbing events? It complies with the measurements in the Blue Book - it is the fitting to the car using the number plate that I am seeking advice on from those who are more knowledgeable. With kind regards Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dobson_justin Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 Providing your number plate is firmly attached I am sure it will be ok. However I would be concerned if your number plate is only stuck on in case it detaches itself. there are lots of different ways people attach theirs, I connect mine through the grill.

Englishmaninwales Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Numerous instances of number plates coming off - kerbs, grassy excursions etc. I fix mine, as per Justin’s advice, to the grill. Malcolm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Rowe Posted December 4, 2023 Author Share Posted December 4, 2023 Thank you for your replies, Dobson_justin and Malcolm. I can see looking at various photos, attaching the Timing Strut to the Grill seems to be most popular. It looks like I need to make Version 2…. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Englishmaninwales Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 (edited) Here you go - fixed via 2 set screws through the timing strut flange (at right angles to the timing strut in this picture) and grill to a plate with a couple of rivnuts.
