Optimax lift ring
Cheeky perhaps, but does anyone in the Southampton area have a mercury Optimax lifting eye/ring attachment I could borrow for a few days?
Much appreciated.

Again, not in your area again but could lend you one if it helps, on the warwickshire/northamptonshire border if you are heading this way at all

I'm going to guess that it's a UNF thread, have you any idea what the diameter of the thread is? I'm pretty sure I've got some UNF bolts here and can sort you out with some angle bracket that you could drill and bolt the the thread in the top of your flywheel.
