Update on my Brumby

Post by **TOONGA** » Thu Apr 29, 2010 10:18 am

that would be great thanks Paul and Dave

one question would the grooves for O rings weaken the shaft too much?

I was rather tired (tied) when I made that suggestion last night

Well yes any machining off the shaft will make it weaker then not machined but can't see it braking unless something causes the shaft to not turn (seized bush or the like). I'd look for a good secondhand one, try and phone anyone that rebuilds Holleys/carbies and see if they have any shafts or something? Just thinking out loud
