What did you do for the column end?

I haven't studied mine in-depth yet as I just quickly put it back together so it was mobile. I know the end of my column has a 1" DD connection that utilized a 3/8" bolt through it & the upper portion of the collapsible shaft. Your pic looks like it mounts straight to the column (splines possibly??).

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
