alligoat Posted November 13, 2012 Report Share Posted November 13, 2012 Why not get a good aftermaket tube and a used gen crown? I've had good luck with the wholesaleoutlet990 tubes and then I just pick up a used 703 crown on ebay- I try to get it for $25-40. Rep tubes can be tricky to install since they typically don't have the internal splines for screwing the tube into the case. Sometimes you can screw the tube in with the crown screwed on, then let the loc-tite dry and unscrew the crown later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dieselpower Posted November 13, 2012 Report Share Posted November 13, 2012 I don't know what the going rate is but I've bought gen NOS 703's (crowns that is) for less than $100 a few times before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
