Look at the bright side: Those new shaft ought to be pretty

damage the gears. They must be made out of recycled bonnet hinges. I think
cotter pins are harder.

Are those numbers pretty much like the difference between butter and
steel??
Thanks for the info...now that I have one of those new shafts sitting in
my new engine...
