I also would be interested in trading my 12 for that 18, if Ocmechanx backs out!

No i think it is still back in the shop up in montana, my buddy up there is rummaging around looking for me. Keith what i can offer is if we get a weekend and i am up in your neck of the woods i would gladly pull my 12 and swap it with your 18.5

Only catch is, i think the exhaust has to be moved around not sure what direction or how its been awhile

I also am looking for a 12. I will check and make sure mine is an 18.5, not the 21 . Is the raised lettering on the bottom or towards the firewall?
