Thanks for all the imput. These whippens are in bad shape, so it's not an easy call, but we like to do what we can for appreciative, serious customers. I am inclined to decline the job entirely at the moment, as it was also (rebuilt) not so long ago and left with plenty of other problems as well. I was just wondering if anyone had tried to do a modification like that, and if so, how it went. Let me know if you want the job. Ha.... Sometimes it's a hard call to know when enough is enough, and harder still to break the news. Maybe I'm wrong, but I'm just not that interested in trying to patch up really old parts on which I can't guarantee satisfaction. Dennis Johnson
