    Dang it Joe!
    I had a stack of these things and was waiting for them to hit 200 bux a set...
    Ain't happening now!

    Oh well.
    I'd rather have you on the case than make a few bux! ;)

    Do they come with the pivot ball from the block?
    That is the part that is hard to come by.
    One can mod the Stang pivot to work, or custom install a bearing,
    but the stock ball would probably be apprieciated by most.

    Just a thought!

    Well ... I had heard that the repops were being hand made to order ... so after I got the one for my Grabber restoration and it looked and worked perfectly I ordered another to keep as a spare in case for some reason the repops were discontinued ...

    Several months ago there was a seller in Canada who reproduced the engine side mount (ball) and sold it on eBay ... he had a picture of it next to an NOS one ... it looked perfect ...
