John:
Is someone trying to sell you something!!!! I got mine welded up today. Looks great, painted and all, even had a drain plug installed in the botom of the pumkin. When the guy ground out the crack to both welded ends, he found where the weld blew away material and weakened the area where the cope and drag part of the casting meet. That is where my crack started from, the weld on the cover to the weld of the tube and bracket. It was the weld at the tube and bracket that caused the failure.
Anyway, I still plan to address this with Joe.
Sure, just yank out the rear end and just send it to him or just drop it off and he will weld it up.
What did you find out in Antwerp?
He just replaced it with a Currie? There must be more to the story. He gets these rear ends from John's Industries or something like that. Why not from Currie to begin with? TOO many$$$. That's why. I'd rather spend a little more for better quality if I were given the opportunity to choose. Hint.
Anyways, do what you think is best for you. One certainly knows more after the fact.
