AMAL Bowl Drain Plugs

But is that what Amal sell today?

I can't see any reason why not.

Ah well there you go then. Useful for originality I guess. 👍👍

This is a photo of how I would set up concentrics for reliability when racing. This is one of a 32 mm carb pair for a 500 Dommie. In this case set up for methanol. A poor bellmouth but you can see the Allen screws holding the bowl plus the monobloc drain plug. Set up like this the carbs do not fall apart up to around 7500 rpm (one piece crank). Rear wheel hp around 55 bhp.

I just don't like those screws. They fall out when you use the bike hard.

Better bellmouth on this one but missing the monobloc drain plug. This carbs set up for petrol.

I believe posidrive drivers can also be used on Philips screw heads...but a Philips drive should be used on a Posidrive scew head.
 

"If you have no other option then you can use a Phillips screwdriver on a Pozidrive screw for low torque applications, but there is always a risk of damaging the head.

You cannot use a Pozidrive screwdriver on a Phillips screw as it will not fit all the way into the recess – it will only damage the screw head."
