[Dale Nicholls]

Hi folks,

I am just wondering if anyone is aware of whether Curtiss Shipp is still making CNC'ed OS46LA metal backplates.

if someone could pass on his contact details that would be appreciated.

thanks,

Dale Nicholls

I think there is a guy on facebook making them. Curtis has not done any in awhile.
Jim Lee might also make them.

[James Lee]

I don't make them, but saw some stuff that Stan Fredy had done ebay. Tthey looked really nice.
thanks
Jim

Someone is making them with o-ring seal now.

             Greg from Kamtechnik is making some for the LA .46 and others.  https://kamtechnik.com/

Yeah the O ring is a nice touch.  I think the same person is offering the Fox .35 stuffer backplates as well.

[Dale Nicholls]

thanks all for the information, quite a few nice options there.
The o-ring sealed unit looks a very nice unit.

   I've gotten parts from Stan Frady and Kamtechnik and both had reasonable prices, good service and impeccable workmanship. If you don't like their parts then you don't like corn bread!!
  Type at you later,

Is the aluminum OS.40 FP backplate fit the OS.46 LA?

Yes, absolutely. So does the Tower .40 backplate. The Tower .46 is a whole different engine design by a different manufacturer, so that one does NOT fit the .46LA.  Steve
