I was thinking of having extra material added the hollow area at the bottom of
the pattern to prevent the hollow area being open to the shaft area. If you
have ever had to remove the shaft it’s difficult due crap/moisture getting into
the shaft as it is open after drilling. (At least on mine currently in use on
my cars)
Amen to that! I had a hell of a time getting those rods out (when
doing my *recent Bobsy FF restoration project

exactly the same reason; years of moister and crap on the exposed rod
down there. It would be nice if the entire rod was covered with casting
material.
