I purchased the Aston style and had a nut welded onto the inside of the filler pipe to secure the cap ring with a hex head set screw (see attached; sorry it’s a bit blurry, but you get the idea). I thought that superior to affixing the mounting ring permanently. Yes, the nut is behind the direction of force, but there’s no need to tighten the set screw to the point of jeopardizing the weld. The Monza is $56.33 (less shipping) at current exchange rates on the DWR website.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=xmsonormal><span style='font-family:"Trebuchet MS",sans-serif'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=xmsonormal><span style='font-family:"Trebuchet MS",sans-serif'>Bruce Steele</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=xmsonormal><span style='font-family:"Trebuchet MS",sans-serif'>Brea, CA</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=xmsonormal><span style='font-family:"Trebuchet MS",sans-serif'>1960 BN7</span><o:p></o:p></p></div><p class=xmsonormal><span style='font-family:"Trebuchet MS",sans-serif'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=xmsonormal><b><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'> Healeys [<a href="mailto:healeys-bounces@autox.team.net">mailto:healeys-bounces@autox.team.net</a>] <b>On Behalf Of </b>Harold Manifold via Healeys<br><b>Sent:</b> Wednesday, October 07, 2020 6:41 PM<br><b>To:</b> 'healeys' <<a href="mailto:healeys@autox.team.net">healeys@autox.team.net</a>><br><b>Subject:</b> [Healeys] Which Monza Cap Supplier?</span><o:p></o:p></p></div></div><p class=xmsonormal> <o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=xmsonormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>Hello,</span><o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=xmsonormal> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=xmsonormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>I would like to add a Monza style gas cap to a Healey BT7.
