[Remchester]

As above can I put the reg kev made for my mk1 on a mk2? They look very similar but dont know if they are compatible? As the one on the mk2 is knackered at the min

Even if calibre is same? The mk2 reg has rounded out on the adjuster so needs a new core or shortening down to make it a short core like yours are kev mate👍

easy way is to just shorten and re thread.
no mk1 as a higher reg pressure setting..chances are it would drop power on the mk2 as it would be over pressured.
