[DeTomaso] Charlie needs a thrust plate!

Yeah, I saw a picture of the Rollmaster set, and it appeared to contain 
a thrustplate as well. It was 20 years since I installed my set, and I'm 
getting old ;)

So perhaps a new Rollmaster Timing set, with a thrustplate, is what 
Charlie needs?

Cheers,
Thomas
