Like I said, cut and weld will make it happen. Bam, there ya go.
I fall for the old "that's just a bit of cutting" every time!
Its close now, still not really working but with a few more days effort I think it will work.
It should end up 1.6 turns but I'm not quite far enough along to be able to check it, this was just the first test fit where it at least fit into the space. Up at the column (yellow arrow) the u joint is still a slip fit and sitting about 1/8" higher than I'd like and down where the quickener shaft meets the EPS shaft (green arrow) its also still a slip fit and that is where I need to cut another 1/8 out before I weld it I guess. Then not clearly visible is the quickener is hitting the bulkhead on top and I really can't get to the EPS connectors....probably 2-3 more full days before it works then another couple days on the how to close the big hole I cut problem.
