Alan,

The threads are definitely BSF in these manifolds, but you're right - 
coarse thread is usually the case in aluminum.

Thanks,

Hi All,

I believe (almost certain) that the 1/4" studs on the manifold are BSF on
BOTH ends.  IF they were coarse threaded into the aluminum they would be
BSW, to match the BSF Whitworth threads on the other end.

Cheers,

Curt

When I purchased my 1960 BT7 (in a thousand pieces) I acquired a pair of the 
aluminum side curtains which I believe are correct for my car. I also got a 
pair of different side curtains as well as a single one that has sliding 
Plexiglas and a frame wrapped in cloth. Would someone please tell me what 
car they are for. Pictures attached. Thanks.

Thanks for the info.  The ones that I took off the manifold were brass 
threaded rod and the threads had stripped under the nuts.  I made some 
by cutting the heads off steel cheese head screws. It looks like British 
Fastener's may have the stud -

Hi Bob,

The studs you linked to are not correct as they are Cycle threads (CEI -
Cycle Engineer Institute) on one end.  CEI threads are NOT Whitworth even
though they are British threads as they have a 60 degree pitch angle of the
threads versus the 55 degree pitch angle for ALL Whitworth form fasteners.

One solution I've seen that is easy is to just remove the studs and replace
them with four short 1/4" BSF hex bolts in order to attach the balance
pipe.   Not Concours but it works well.

Curt.
