Thanks Jeff
yes it does. all the best Tim

As the auction is over I wondered if I could ask this question for anyone to comment. The Monte Carlo bar in the pictures, has it been relocated so the tube sits slightly further back ? (ie by re-welding it further back on the bracket) .Because the one I have is also straight and sits directly above the distributor. I wonder if mine is therefore incorrect or has that one been modified to clear the tall Accel racing 11 distributor. I'll copy and paste the underhood pic and move elsewhere if its inappropriate to put it here (sorry)

2 questions ?
1. Shafts in first pic, at beginning of thread, show the ends (drum end) solid with 2 drill holes, but shafts pictured at the end of the thread have the 'typical' hollow ends seen on every 'Lopo' 28 spline shafts that I've seen. Are we to take it that a correct HP / Shelby shaft has the solid ends with the drill holes ? (I expect they are not drill holes, I'm just trying to explain their appearance). This way , would be easy to verify a correct shaft by merely removing a wheel, or if possible, a centre cap. And 31 spline shafts from 69/70 Boss have the solid ends too, so is that a manufacturing similarity denoting the 'HP' shafts ? Reading above, mention of drive pins and centering hole, which makes sense, I'm just wanting to know if that makes them correct, in which case the last pic, would not)
2. There is mention to the diameter of the HP shaft being similar to a 31 spline. Is it possible therefore to fit a (correct length) 31 spline shaft into a small bearing axle housing ? Something I've wanted to find out but have never managed to. As would mean, for example, a 31 spline 'N' case pumpkin could swap in with a pair of aftermarket shafts. Sorry this is a 'non-original' question.
