if you put a gusset on it and/or moving the bell crank arm on the tube, be aware of the wire bail which retains the location of the nylon bearing halves and the tubing, too.
I was looking at the wire bail today, wondering if I could gain 1/4" towards the bellhousing by re-drilling the wire bail holes closer to the outboard edge.
I think too that I'm going to cut the brass pilot bushing with a hacksaw blade and chisel it out.
