Drilled Mitchell 402
I have some old mitchell 302's and 402's. On one of the rougher 402's I would like to restore and drill spool and polish body. Was wondering if anyone on here has done that before? If so can I get the specs for spacing.

You mean the spool and rotor right? Can't imagine anyone drilling the body. I've done a fair bit of modding and restoring but no drilling.

Just spool and rotor. I meant to say polish the body. I have crosswind cam, penn upgrade drag, and the no port side plate, and bocca bearings.
Here is an example of what I would like to do along with adding manual pickup and a power knob.

If you want to make it stronger and more balanced you could double gear it- but that does add a few ounces. That cut out rotor looks sharp. Might have to do that myself.

Tom, we really enjoyed hearing you two tonight at Post 44. We have heard you before at the Elks Club, but you were in particularly good voice tonight. That was as fine a rendition of "You Were...
