 Now you have me thinking about the combination I used and it was the SV 
pedestal and a SII fork and bearing. With the pressure plate and disc I 
used it all may have been a matter of luck that I got it right after the 
second try.  I will take a good look at it the next time I have it apart.

 Eric G.  and I talked about a low key SOS but not at Dillard. Nothing 
has been committed to as far as I know but if we want to put something 
on we need to move on it here soon.  Jim
