lots of people know how but if we just go out and tlel you then the marketability loses value and ETB's become non-profit making products.
just go out and test some ideas out, believe me it is super easy.
FD3Boost if you can send me the dimensions over AIM it would be helpful. I have about 5 different ETB shafts and a couple brackets already setup with a unique preloading setup and everything, just need to see which one fits and so on, also as many pics as possible would help, if everything turns out chea enough i could sell them for $55 who knows.

i'd buy one for each side of the engine if its in the single digit pricing
even tho this'll probably ruin my chance to sell them, the materials before labor only cost me about $15 and it doesn't look ghetto at all it has a nice finish, is super strong, and works, or in theory should work, as is necessary. Believe me it's been through rigorous testing, not as an ETB but as another piece on something else my family owns. However after labor to fab a bracket, get rubber bushings, go get the appropriate bolts and such to ship with, then shipping itself, you can see why the price would have to jump up a bit.
oh and mine comes with adjustability aka pre-loading like the feed ETB
