Sorry but I don't have the measurements you need.

The 82/83 center caps are the same as the 84/87 in size.

There also a cap from centerline that is cheap and fits well. It's cone shaped though.



Oops, I take it back - priced doubled:

c cap

Rich, not the price those aren't very nice looking. the 84-87 are a different design, cut outs I think. the originals I can reproduce out of brush alum and have chromed or just polished and make simi perm or at least try to make simi-perm. the length and emblem dia. is all I really need the rest I can work out.

all my engine parts are packed away in crates inside a 5th wheel till I get the new shop done thats why I was looking for help on measurements on coolant lines.

I have an Chrome '83 T Type and a black '87 TR center cap in front of me. They look identical except for the colors.

2 3/8" tall (not including the monuting tabs)
Emblem is 2 1/2" in diameter.
