**73 Scamp Mini Pro-Street Engine Swap**

Mine has the lil billet aluminum caps and through bolts. This was already on the car. The Yoke must have been drilled through at some point cause I know the stock ones are Threaded. I attempted to drill through one on my other car with it in the car and it was impossible. Need a Press and some seriously Hardened bits to do it.

I installed those billet aluminum caps offered by Mancini and drilled the yoke out while it was in the car. You are dead on right about needing a drill press to do it correctly. I went through six drill bits and one of the holes is actually at an angle (which I didn't think would be that easy to do when chasing an existing hole).

After installing the caps, I don't actually recommend them. They look better on the site lol. Also, it's damn near impossible to get at the allen head retainer bolts, since they are ~3" long and hit the drive shaft when you try to remove them.

I'll be doing U-bolts on my next build for sure. and drilling out the yoke with a drill press. No more of that BS.
