52'-53' Engine/Distributor Cover Mounting Question

[gbetar01]

Hi,

I found a engine/distributor/oil pump cover for my 53' Chief but I can't figure out how it was originally mounted. Does anyone out there have a 52 or 53 that has the cover and is willing to help me figure out what the mounting brackets should look like?

Thanks,

Joe Betar

Jerrygreesrindianengineering shows the cover and a mounting kit in the 53 oil pump section if that helps.

There are two long studs that replace two of the oil pump screws. The cover goes over these special studs and are held in place with two nuts. It works well.

I just got my mounting kit from JG. Had to tap on the spiral lock washers to get then on past the threaded part of the stand-off.
