Well, scratch that idea. I guess I'm back to the replacement wastegate you had been in touch with your vendor about. Let me know if you get one tracked down that has the proper rod length. I suppose I could fab one up as you did, but that means buying a tap & die set to re-thread the rod... I'd rather buy the right length to start. Thanks again!
