I did it "WRONG", but it is right for me. I bought an unused PTC 8" off of Marketplace for a good price. I asked the seller what he had it built for, and it was a similar cubic inch and weight as my build.
I know it will not be a perfect match, and if it is way off. I can send it in for a restall and still be money ahead. This works for me to at least get on the road.
I am glad that some are able to do it right the first time, but for some of us that is not possible, so we do the best we can with what we have.
That is what is great about this hobby, you can have fun with whatever fits your situation, and appreciate what others have done too.
