Reply To: 1957 RDE-19 magneto. Part identification.

Update just in case others run into this. Some folks from the AOMCI Facebook indicate my magneto plate is worn, and it’s possibly some aluminum build up from scraping.

I have a NOS plate on the way in the mail.
So I had a look today again, and I noticed the bosses where the locator ring would presumably sit appear to have a section machined from them. I’ve enclosed pics, because I’m not sure if it is supposed to be machined like this, or perhaps this is where it may have been scraping?

I looked at my NOS in photos and it’s too small to tell if they all have these “shelves”.

Anyway. Here’s the pics.
