Case inserts
I was searching through this forum and saw a referance to case inserts that allow you to run T1 heads with no machining. I was just curious about who makes these inserts and how much do they cost?

Hi Tom,
The Case does require machining....
I make the inserts, but I only sell them in the case conversions I do.
If your interested in a converted case, E-Mail me.

http://shoptalkforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=62835 Heres the link for all the info. Used heads dont seem too expensive, and this might be an easier alternative to machining the case.
I think a used set would be quite a Chalenge to find, especially here in the U.S.A.
$2500.00 (approx) for a new set? With basically stock ports.
You usually have to do machine work on the cases anyway... The studs coming out without snapping off, is rare.
Rocky puts inserts in the cases that have the original style stud spacing, and so do I.....
I.M.O. Theres no "easy way out".... These things still cost less than a Big Type IV.... even if you build it with premium parts / Pay for the machine work.
The results are more impressive too.
