	I have Atiwe Pepperpots on my Westy. They take the tapered seat nuts and bolts, same as the Carats. Not the radius ones the steels use. No other changes necessary. Just torqued up correctly.

	the caravelle/carat etc taper nuts end up screwing in more hence no need for longer studs. I have found that some aftermarket taper nuts/bolts don't seen to have the same effect as the oe nuts/bolts I would think its possibly a different angle to the taper.
	WHY T3's.... because they are just so adictive, and having one just aint enough
