Hi John, just to avoid confusion here I should perhaps point out that we
are dealing with a 6 cylinder engine here and the generator mounting
bracket, which is also the front side cover, is secured by screws that
don't pass into the water jacket.
As far as I'm aware the issue with the generator mount bracket applies only
to the 100 engine and, as you say, can cause such problems. I should also
point out that all 8 rocker shaft mounting studs (not the valve cover nut
studs) on the 100 head pass through into the water jacket and care must be
taken to ensure that they are carefully sealed.
