No problem. Just FYI.... later arms (73-87) bolt up to the older x-members as well as older arms (63-72) bolt up later x-members.

The big changes were later x-members had disc brakes from the factory & used larger dia u-bolts for lower shafts & HD trucks have larger dia upper shaft studs.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
