After fitting my cover, I did not like the movement in the center at the engine lid side. I felt this was excessive and would cause possible vibration at speed. To cure this required a further modification. I welded a further steel bar across the cover, again atttached to my orginal fabrication. At first I tried to bend the bay to take up the curves in the cover, but simply could not get these tight enough in my vice, so I finally decided to cut the bar into sections and welded it in the shape you see here. After glassing to the cover I found I had cured the problem. Funny that!
