You may want check this site: http://groups.msn.com/SplitWindowRestorations/steeringboxphotos.msnw
(Or do a search for Split Window Restorations on the web.) It is a site run by Robert Atkins here in Portland and he has in his pictures how he did the pittman arm in a V8 conversion. If I remember correctly he had the arm cut and welded to change the lower ball to go to the inside rather than the outside to create the offset.
Good Luck
