I have just tried a Mamod s/v and it is a nice snug fit.  

Thankyou. Thumbs up!

Just bringing this back just in case any of our new members maybe able to help, or even if anyone else has found a gear and they are not using it.

Large Bowman gear wanted to fit a Bowman M158.

Also such a large number of engines have loose threads it makes it difficult to establish exactly what they are. A proper minefield


I agree completely with that.
Still haven't managed to figure out the thread size of the top half of the whistles from Renown engines. Its really hard to work out the TPI when you only have 4 turns of a thread.
