[QUOTE="Cyborg, post: 117984, member: 3426"] For the Lightning project, you could have a replica KVF TT made from a converted K2FC, but it is a bit of a task. Once you find a slack wire end housing, modify the cam ring, you will have to deal with the angle of the #2 pickup assuming you want it to look right. To do that, you need to add metal and machine the housing. TIG welding will require demagnetizing first. More than one way to skin a cat, but welding would be preferred. The K2FC will likely be the wrong rotation, so safety gap screws will have to be relocated. Then you need to come up with a points cover. If anyone out there has one, I want it worse than you do. Not all of the KVF TT’s came with this style, but I would hazard a guess that most did. In order to get a KVF TT knockoff made, you’ll have to track down someone with the necessary information , parts, equipment, and who is probably not quite right in the head.
