Thanks guys for the compliments... Thanks Pink, means alot coming from you since I think you make some cool tubers! So far everything is straight and true... I know how hard it is to keep it true, but I made sure it was, mic'd every joint and holes so it should be pretty balanced. I will make the tranny plate and post updates later! ~John |
