thanks very mush thats a start

BTW: although the drawing says to use mild steel - aluminium is just as good, easier to machine, and doesn't rust.

To be honest - any hard metal that's available will do.

mine was just a flat plate bolted over the whole with a gasket

In my case, I had the metal, and I have a lathe...

BTW: I re-used the dizzy's own clamp to fix the bung into the block (another reason I did it this way)

When I did mine I used aluminum , and didnt bother with the `o`ring - I just glued it in with some thread sealer

Made mine from a lump of ally I had , used an "o" ring and made it an interference fit . I have drilled and tapped a hole in the top just in case I ever need to get it out.
