After cleaning up the OHV valve cover and making it look really good, I bought a 2400 valve cover back from a mate who I sold it to several years ago.
I found it along with 2 others laying in the dirt and weeds at a Datsun hoarder's yard. Bought all three of them along with loads of other parts.
Several hours of scrubbing and cleaning and was able to fit it on this car. I think it looks nice and correct, very happy.

Will you be coming doninghton historic in may for the big meet
I’ve put my engine back in.
Putting the carbs back on with their individual heatshields was a real faff. I ended up gluing the washer thingies to the carbs before mounting them.
I hope they do their job well. Hopefully I’ll find out tomorrow.
Did you ever exorcise the returning marbles!?
Went for MOT today. "Failed on three things Sir, rear nearside position light insecure, rear nearside indicator insecure, rear nearside stop light insecure"
What - three rear lights loose? No...the sealant on the lens had given up (or not been the right stuff in the first place) and the lens was loose. I guess the piece of duck tape I had put on it gave the game away..oh well, lesson learned!
Stripped it down and now just waiting for my sealant to arrive. I'm going to use Sikalastomer 710 as I don't fancy putting my lights in the oven (can't seem to find any Morimoto butyl sealant in the UK anyway) unless somebody knows anything negative about the Sikaflex?
