I actually never had one done yet. I got C27's old one (+5") and hopefully member "Mydreamride" will come thru for C27 and anyone else interested. C27 wanted a shorter one so we swapped for the stock FX400 I had and I have to pay to have it lengthened. PM mydreamride and see what he has to say. He told me the jig was done to weld it up with, so maybe a little money and some orders may persuade him to get it done.

I can get one made here. It is heavier but will not break. Cost is probobly going to be around $200 as 2 different places have to do work on it.

yes its true the jig is finished (will do -1 to +6) as you saw at the group ride (tom halls +4) ken. Steve's arm is 99% done only needs the brake stay pin welded in. Haven't been able to mad any progress for the past month and a half do to a broken arm. But will shortly start your +2 speedracer.

Heres som pics of a +4 next to a stocker minus boxing it in and brake stay pin

Completely new, or modified stocker?

I am looking for at least a +6. Lightweight as possible. Drag racing only, no duning.

Its a modified stocker. I was really worried about the added stress of making it +6 so we used solid extensions and added a center plate. To lighted it the center plate could be left out and the center of the extensions could be drilled out.
