Ps gauge bracket

Should the torque generator line up with the front steering shaft on a Super M without the gauge bracket having to be shimmed? Is there some way to make a bracket for the hood wing nut? Thanks DTK.

I believe the original Char Lyn kits had a different guage panel to make it line up. If you don't have that then you will probably have to adapt what you have

I think there is an aluminum wedge that shims the generator correctly It is not fabricated on site, it is a part number (IIRC) Jim

Totally different bracket; no wedges or shims.

None of the ones line up perfect that I have had contact with. Don't know of any with the wing nut stud.
Made my own mount that lines up with shaft and with the hood support and stud. But to get the torque generator mounted in line with the worm shaft, the front of the fuel tank was raised about 3/4 inch and the rear a little more and then the bottom of the radiator moved back and the front tilted forward to make the sheet metal look matching. Raise was done so hood would clear the torque generator and not rub.
New mounts or original charlynn ones seem to mount the unit lower than perfect alignment at the rear of unit to get hood clearance.
May be some better one out there that I haven't tried.
