The Xcelorin and Trinity motors I had in the car were both shaped just fine and required no dremeling to get a 118/53 in the car, but my Xcelorin is a 10.5, and the 17.5 Trinity that I borrowed from Alex last time out was busy in his Speedmerchant today... so with no prs adapter handy, this is the result...

warning: it might be a good idea to check for ROAR legality (or whatever rules are in place where you race)
damn
well you got it to work
