Steve,   Nice looking T-Bird.    Thanks for posting the photo.   A picture is worth a thousand words.  Thanks also for the tip on where to get these collars,  those places are both here local.  I will pick a couple up next time I`m out.  All I need now is the reamer....   Thanks again,   1954 Mercury 312

I also will be doing the Granada front disc upgrade on my 57 Bird in the next month or so.

Speedway, the last time I looked, offered two reamers, one cheap and one not so cheap. Anyone have experience with either of them? Also, is it possible to do the reaming by hand without a drill press?

Reaming by hand or even a drill works great. It still cuts fast though. I wouldn't waste my money on an expensive one. You will probably only use it once. Just make sure you ream the right hole! (don't ask how I know that) Chuck

Y's guys rule!

I bought 1 from speedway years ago, I think you run at 1/2 speed , be sure to put masking tape on , so you don't go too deep. try cut very quick !!
