And yes, this has created troubles as to why a car that was accepted 10 years ago as such is no longer going through.
Thank you for taking the time to respond, Duddha, it's easy to forget your last point above. When, for instance, we applied to renew the HTP for my simple Morgan +4 last year, the inspector found several incorrect details on the original papers that would not be accepted now! Luckily none were as drastic as a gearbox casing, and were easily dealt with before submission.

I hope sorting the Hewland casing query is as simple for Delta and the Tiga owner.
