Gary -
The dust jacket of the book "The Sports Car Engine:Its Tuning
and Modification", by Colin Campbell, has a photo of "a BMC competitions
mechanic checking a works Austin Healey 3000" which shows the access
cutout.
Incidentally, that book is well worth getting for its technical
content.

Subject: carburetor access panel
I want to add a carburetor access panel to the shroud like the
rally/race cars often had. Does anyone have a good photo of one that
they can share? I am particularly interested in seeing how the panel
edge was mated to the shroud. My memory is that the panel edge was
beaded where it overlaps the shroud.
Thanks,
Gary Hodson
