Makes sense, but any torque plate, even 1" is better than none. - A400 2006-06-03 20:42:05 (195 views)

Unless those are 10" bores doesn't look 4-5" thick to me. Maybe my old man eyes tho .. - Yippers® 2006-06-01 20:45:07 (140 views)

Just looked thicker than one we made! thought later was bcause he wanted 2 do w/o bolt spacers - A400 2006-06-02 11:43:52 (163 views)

Well, we all know that it's impossible to do it better once you've done it. - Mike O. 2006-06-08 07:31:27 (137 views)
