Most I’ve seen have damage in the head tube for some reason. Besides the damage just too much missing for me to make a run. V/r Shawn

Glenn Rhein and I have been talking about that headtube setup -
Apparently the mfg method was to cast the head shroud and then drill it to mount the tubes into the shroud.
Honestly I'm surprised every single one hasn't failed, I can't tell you how many times I checked inside the shroud of mine as I was working on it to ensure I hadn't started any hairline cracks.
