Blk 47, my steering went out Sat night, so if Dr Keven Thomas gets it done in time, I will attend. Hud Cone has also offered some spares to get me going, so that is an option also. By all means come by and take a look.
Overall everything weighs about 20 lbs more than a conventional drive line, but on the other hand I weigh about 30 lbs more than a conventional driver

Bert gave me and Brian Paulis each one to run and give feed back. I dont carry an on board battery anymore, but once you get used to having it, it's hard to due without. Adjusting the valves is a snap, just plug the battery in like a Silver Crown car and hit the button to bump your engine over. Same for checking leaks at home.....hit the button and varoom, it's running. And it's so much safer coming into the pits, you can putt around as fast as you need to.
It uses the DMI bell and 2 pc flange, standard u joint, so all of those things are common to find and replace, if needed. It uses a cone clutch, not the old style pressure disc. I haven't needed to yet, but it costs $100 to completely freshen the unit.
I didnt mean to make a commercial out of this, just adding some info to questions I get all of the time about it.
