Re: Trans cover
Essentially yes, but the earliest '13 covers had a different clutch shaft to which the yokes were keyed and bolted. Later ones were pinned to the shaft and riveted over.

Re: Trans cover
Also in 15 the reinforcing ribs appeared near the bolt holes.

Re: Trans cover
Yes, that's the shaft. Actually, according to Ford, the ribs first appeared in some 1912 covers but it wasn't until late 1913 that they all had them.

Re: Trans cover
My Sept, 12 assembled B series motor has the reinforcements at the trans cover bolt holes. Somewhere in my reading a photo of an alloy trans cover with a hand engraved 1912 casting date, showed the reinforcing ribs, so they did start early on.
