Jim and Dave, I agree about the balancing. Dan and I talked it over last night and I have his flexplate and damper in my car, ready to take over to the machinist. I'll drop that off today.

We took a quick look at what I want for the front perch on my project and I am going to cut the pieces today also, that way one night this week he can weld it up for me. Once all the critical pieces are done (that I don't trust my own welding on) I won't have to bug him to do those for me and can do the non structural pieces on my own. There are things I will weld and things I won't, depending on where they go and how good they have to look.
