I was scrolling down and saw the pic of an open diff with Quaife clearly stamped on it, not taking any notice of user names so thought steve had stripped his and was asking if it was diff. Typed my reply and though...bah, it's someone else posting a helpful pic....but couldn't be arsed deleting it so just changed the name. Extremely useful for the thread, I know!

so that's a Quaife one then?
I remeber when I took my old 'box to Bernie @CTS he told me Quaife gears are gold/bronzey whereas standars are silvery/grey, I think?
