Flatheadfan and Don Rogers both have good written instructions on how to do this.

Thanks, None of what I have found was the thread I remember seeing. Maybe the one I was thinking of was on the old FB, either way I got it figured out what to do. Thanks Rod

Here are the instructions that Don Rogers posted here some time ago. He had once given me an OK to repost this so I hope that still apples. You would need to contact Flatheadfan directly for his information.
