i think he called it a saw tooth, but I really don't remember. I picked it because it was period correct for 74 chevrolet..

well I decided to do another mod to gain max travel of bars past the intended travel points just for that peace of mind. 1/8 inch is to close so now I'll have 1/2" or better. I cut a 3/16" wall...
