    Chain Boxes and Covers

    I am trying to put things back to the way they were so I am removing the carrera tensioner and going back to the spring tensioner with safety collars. The question I have is about the chain boxes and covers, I know I will need new covers but what about the box I remember hearing the studs are different on some boxes?

    Here's what I have:
    Boxes- 901 105 101, 102
    Covers- 930 105 105, 106
    Tensioner- 930 105 547
    (soon to be for sale)

    And what I will need possibly need:
    Boxes- 901 105 061, 062
    Cover- 930 105 063 (Left), 901 105 064 or 930 105 064
    Tensioner- 901 105 050, 930 105 053, etc...

    So what do I really need? Do I need diffent boxes are the part numbers correct? Also what about magnesium vs aluminum boxes and covers could an aluminum case have mag boxes from the factory?

    Early boxes, 1967 and earlier, have 7 studs and later boxes 68+ have 11 studs. I guess I can just get new covers and keep the boxes if need be. I think I may have figured this out.
