Hi cP;
Go to this web site,
Yahoo! Groups - Join or create groups, clubs, forums & communities and join the Morgan group list. Post your question. Many M34 owners. I have a 1967 M34 with the bronze board. Should be same set up as yours. I have some diagrams from the M34 manual and some links to mods some people have made. I did the Dave Doolin mod. I can email you the diagrams. I 'll have to wait til tonite but I'll look over the diagrams and try to see how you bent your tube. Anyways join the yahoo list. Sailnet also has a list too. Sometime they seem like a Morgan Out Island list but there is a lot of other Morgan owners who read it and just hang out in the background unless something comes up on their boat.
