Metric or Imperial - how to tell?

Recommended Posts

Primary difference (apart from metric versus imperial fasteners) is that the imperial chassis is brazed, whereas the metric one is welded. Originally they were supposed to be robot-welded, but I understand they couldn't get the robots to work properly and switched back to hand welding everything (though I guess that could just be an internet rumour, I don't have any sources for it).

The easiest way to spot the different chassis type is to look at the pedal box cover, an imperial chassis has a symmetrical cover (viewed along its centreline) whereas on a metric chassis the cover is asymmetric.

Stu.
