Upgrading a k1500 to 2500/3500 questions?

I was hoping that it wouldn't come to that but I always guess I can stock up on 1500 series spares as they're cheap and easy to come by. By pirate site what do you mean? Never heard of it. I would at least like to see what it takes to modify the 2500 CVs for a 1500. Your also right because for...
