I am considering trying to drill the shft end on center and add a countersunk screw through the crank and into the shaft. otherwise outside of finding a donor regulator and cutting an extended piece and welding it onto the existing shaft I can't come up with anything. BTW my old 61 GMC is still plugging along. I don't drive it a lot and it's 305 V-6 leaks some oil but it holds together
