Jus wondering out loud, but doesn't the '88 have the cylinder cast for the outlet on the side? it so, couldn't you machine the casting flat, bore and thread it for the spigot then put a block off plate on the back? I suppose if you can't do the work your self, might as well trade or sell the 88 and buy a later one, could actually make money on the deal if you are lucky :D

I don't feel comfortable drilling on my cylinder and with my luck id proably screw it up,and as far as selling it and buying a new one again with my luck id proably wind up in the hole on that deal too,not much of a wheeler dealer ! Thanks though
