I talked to the kid's shop teacher today, he's on board with the elongation plan. So that good, he can get that thing together and maybe stay out of the deep mud holes.
PS i looked at Turbo city's site but could not find that adaptor.
This site is a great resourse. You guys really have some nice project going and some great talent. Makes me want to tear in to my 50 F3 ford. That and two old Harleys all need attention.
Thanks again for all the help
