MG TD TF 1500 - Clock for 'T' ??

I just saw on Ebay # 122066352431 a TD clock?
The reason I am asking is that I found one, identical in my spares but it appears different from the original, is this correct or not? If not what does it belong to, or will it fit?

On another note, I am reassembling my newly chromed radiator cowl and I would like to know the TAP/DIE size for cleaning up the nuts that have studs soldered onto the inner rad cowl.
Cheers...Barry

Hi Barry,

Can't help with the clock but I think the threads are 2BA

Not sure which TD that came out of - but this is the original from my 53 TD. Following an overhaul by
Hal Kramer.

Rod, how long ago did Hal do your clock? I sent him mine about a month ago and I haven't heard a thing. He hasn't replied to my emails. Was that your experience?

Thanks

Tim,
Hal did mine about a year ago and it took about 6 weeks. It runs very well now.
Don't know why you don't get an email reply - unless he is away on holiday perhaps?
HE will bench test the timing for a while - to adjust the clock to get it accurate.
Let us now it goes.

Thanks, Jan for the 2BA size for the rad cowl nuts and Rod for the picture of the TD clock.

Hi guys,
My 52 TD came with a fake clock. If someone hère has a used clock to sell, even not working, I would be interested.
Thanks.
