It does look nice. Be careful though. There have been some other nice goodies on e-bay AND OFF e-bay that have been brought to this list. Some have paid dearly. Who's the seller? Have a name? Todd B

I know when something sounds too good to be true.... It's seems simple enough though. Since I've already started a dialog with him, if anyone wants me to pose a question to him, just email it to me.

WARNING! CODE RED! Anytime someone tries to 'improve' on a design be very careful. The original part is aluminum, not steel. If memory serves me correctly that was to allow the aluminum to expand fro

The metalurgy aspect is something he should realize if he is a mechanical engineer. Also, these threads are typically stripped when the wrong bolts are used, not necesarily from over torquing. The to

Hey... I'm as skeptical as the next guy... I just thought I would see what everyone thought about it. Nope, working on it. correctly that was to allow the aluminum to expand from the heat to give a b
