    Make your piece out of a wood block exactly how you’d want it and send it up to mass. I’ll cast one out of aluminum for you just for shipping cost. I’m always looking for a reason to cast something....just need a pattern to copy
    Assuming u need a 3/8 or 1/2 inch spacer or more of some kind

    Thank you for the offer shep!

    The big hole in the middle is proving to be an issue. I don't have anything that can turn that sharp, even for cutting wood.

    I do have access to plasma cutter and cutting the piece out of steel may be the best I can do.

    The orange one is my wood pattern, painted it so the sand wouldn’t stick as easy- and made it smoother.
    I’ll drill the 3 holes Sunday on the drill press-I just have to make a path to get to it (garage needs a cleaning)

    WOW!!!!!!!!!! Shep, I hate that you spent so much time on this but thank you!!! That looks so much better than the steel one I cut! My holes didn't line up quite right either...I can't wait to see it!

    Done, when installing line up the black marker lines you’ll see. It fits all three ways but lines up best where marked.
    I’ll throw away your steel plate template if that’s ok? I can ship it out Monday am. It was fun doing this just pass help along to someone else sometime.

    The one single oring between the two will work as intended.
    Your welcome
    You will need a gasket between head+flange though still.

    I just spend an hour at a shoo trying to get help bleeding my rear brakes after rebuilding the master cylinder. We could not get any pressure at the end of the line and there seems to be air and fluid leaking out of the bottom of the master around the rod. How can it be leaking there? I cleaned the cyl very well and followed the manual rebuilding it

    Just as a final update...

    I completed the build a couple weeks ago and finally did a few minutes of riding to jet the 36 pwk. I settled at 48/ 165.

    My first real ride on it will be Friday for practice at the South of the Border MX national. I am going to race it Saturday. I just want to thank Shep one more time for the hard work on the exhaust spacer and I am SO excited to have a running, riding 250!
