Hi folks!This weekend has been an interesting mix of weather -- rain/sleet changingto snow (about 4" in our part of KS) changing to rain/drizzle all day Sat.To kill some time I dug out one of my Slick 4220 RH mags & opened it up tolook inside (after all, they are still good for parts! ;-)It appears that the mag. can/could be changed to a LH rotation mag.-- thereare RH& LH timing marks on the drive gears and the dist. gear. I haven'tpulled off all the parts on the impulse drive to check for changing therotation there -- there is a LH pin location for the impluse engagement, soit appears to be possible.Does someone have a copy of the manual for the Slick 4220? I remember athread about this last summer, but I don't recall how it ended.If all else fails, you can always use the mag on a VW conversion!Mike C.Pretty Prairie, KS----- Original Message -----
