not real sure Ron I have none of those lips. I would imagine the face of the lip will not be long enough and then you have the line tie location.. The lips have a longer face than anything I have seen. If you have an old P-40 lip and got some dial calipers measure them up. I got the dim. above. There are some made by the sponsors now, of course after I made like a hundred of them. Have not used any of them but I would imagine they are pretty accurate. Definitely a nitch plug.

Professor,

Great post! what did you make the lips out of? Aluminum? SS?
I make some of my own lips and blades from SS, how do you polish the edges after cutting to get them so perfect?

Great job!

MS
