The adapter is 1.25x.120 wall and has tube inserts TIG welded at both ends. The rack is currently missing the jam nuts on the threads... they will get put on before the truck is driving!
The black paint must have thrown me off. The previous pics were bare metal so it was easier to see the welded inserts @ the end of the rack adapter.

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.
