I can't remember whether this matters or not, but can someone verify the position of the notches on the filler flange for the gas cap.  My photo shows the opposing notches at about the 10 and 4 position (on a '71).  I'm retrofitting the old style filler flange.

That is the correct position as verified on my 1971 1600.  I am assuming that it will locate the gas cap in the correct horizontal position when attached.  I have a locking gas cap and spin it to the correct horizontal position after locking.
