I believe it claimed to have the 1:1 drive, but not likely the big crank damper. Your 8 rib conversion is going to be an 8" I then assume?

1 week + 2 years collecting parts.

Seriously, though, this has to be one of the best documented processes of a build I have ever seen. The attention to detail in the documentation is nothing short of stellar.

Kudos to Devin for his huge contribution to the collective knowledge of the board, in the way he is documenting this.
