113H conversion and issue

[AlasKen]

Ken, what color plate? If I have one I'll send it on.

The side plate is maroon.  It is the non handle side.  Attached photo.  I picked it up on eBay on a whim.  Didn't notice the damage in photos.  You can see the missing screw.  Thanks for offer.

I will check today.

Sent the 505-HS to another member. The side-plates are diffrent, Ken. Modified to be deeper for ball bearings. The spool is also modified with longer shafts. With the HS, you get 5:1 gears(that may be weaker cause of the smaller teeth) and more castability(?)with the ball bearings(?), stock double bars instead of posts and 2-rings for the tail-plate.
Myself, I'll take the 5:1 gears for saltwater lure retrieval and deep drop retrieval. And the double bars/rings for strength. The 500's main gear has to be stronger though, and might be a better trolling reel.
