carbon motor plate
 

this may be a stupid question but do the screws securing the the carbon motor plate to the gear box jus tap in to the carbon fibre?

They do indeed mate, we advise to pre-tap the holes first with a 4-40 tap or if not available a suitable 4-40 screw

cheers darren i have access to a 4-40 tap so will use that

and they are secured with glue instead of threadlock?

They are fixed without any glue just like in the alu plate.
