Awesome. 
I'll PM you my #, if you want, and we can text, if you like.. always nice to have a friend. AS for the vaccum system.. No idea, (I'm used to old tractors, lol.) If its the same engine, I would think so, but i'm not positive. You could probably make it work, though.

Everyone says it will ride like a dumptruck.If you get them REALLY cheap,I say go for it.You can always change them out for a good set for about $100.
