Have you ever looked at how bad the ends are finished on these, quite the restriction. Right is factory 3/8, left is fine lines 3/8 stainless.

I seeeeeee! Trim the end back until you get the right diameter.
 
Who's are those??? My repros certainly didn't look like that.. from The Right Stuff...
 
I would call them. They look like ****. Are all the ends like that? If so send the junk back.
 
Fine lines, cut the tip and polished up a pushrod to knock the swage out. Return is not much better.

A little bigger than original now. Could be one of the reasons restorations run like such dogs.

It never stops! You pay big money for things and still have to do surgery on it. Oh well, at some
point you will be done!
 
Yep, pretty much everything needs work, even some of the nos stuff but ya it will get done someday.
