List:
For scale installation, American Models has a small pad with a
2-56 countersunk hole in center and on each side the holes for 0-48 Kadee
screws. These pads are $1.00 per pair at AM. Guess you call them 802
coupler mounting pads.
Run a ¼ or 1/8 2-56 thru the center and into the engine frame/car
underframe. Then drill the outside holes for the 0-48 with a number 53
drill. Trick is to drill one side, run an 0-48 in part way, then drill the
other side. This way the block wont move while drilling and the outside
holes will be correct for an 802 Drilling using a pin vice drill into the
metal chassis takes some doing use bees wax or a drop of oil on the bit to
help getting through.
Ive had some AM engines come with the coupler pad ground off
flat for the talgo mounted, so you will need to leave the small pad on the
chassis for correct coupler height. I just looked at the SD60 - theres no
2-56 hole in the chassis but the E-8 has a 2-56 hole. I recall earlier GPs
and FP7s had the 0-48 holes molded in the coupler pad for easier drilling,
but no more.
