Thanks for clearing that up. It's too bad that when two NHRA Tech officials are asked about using a Fabbed housing they both tell me NO and then apparently it's just fine. So, the only part that has to be "stock" is the mounting ring? What a joke! Wish they would have told me that. Could have saved a lot of work cleaning up and bracing the old turd I started with. Oh well. NICE work by the way!
