Then again I'm an idiot and it probably can be turned by the bolt pattern. _____________________________ 97 Eclipse, Dropped, Enkei, AEM intake, Greddy header & muffler, missing EGR, Adjustable cam gears, Underdrive pulley, SAFC, Battery relocated to rear, A lot of other stuff (in reply to AMM) Post #: 21
