Re: Engine coupler replacment poll...
what is the cost of a new coupler? standard vs HD? I'm about to reinstall my rebuild hp500's & I'm wondering if I should replace them now??

that ones still in pretty good shape, what you are looking for is the shape of the splines. when they get real thin and pointy is when you have problems

I'm going to go ahead & reuse them - @ $300 plus a crack I'll take a chance. (I don't have to pay someone to change them.) besides I'm broke from the rebuilds $$
