Any advise?
here's an idea, talk to rick (buckshot) and see what it would run you to drop a 3L in that badboy!
he doesn't do that anymore, he just builds them. And even then you have to go through ADC to get one, not Rick himself.

Bummer about that. What road where you on when it happened? Welcome to the boards. Best of luck finding a replacement.
