Has anyone converted a shaft with a 5/16x14 joint to fit a Pechauer butt-section with the speed joint screw?
If yes, how complicated was the work and what tools were used to make it happen?
Thanks in advance

It's not complicated at all if you know what your doing.
Sorry, couldn't resist that.

I make my own inserts, blank on the inside. So whether it's going to be piloted or flat faced, I go from there.
Drill, bore, tap, if piloted. The size of the pilot. face the joint, Finished!

Lol! It’s all good, I should have been more specific about it.
My scenario is about leaving the original insert (5/16x14) in a CF shaft and converting it to work on a speed joint.
I was thinking of using a 21/64 drill bit & reamer, but not sure if this is the right size that would work before getting some.

The 5/16x14 part is standard size , smooth shank part, bore .320 I think and just short of 1/2" long. I'm not near my book but I'm pretty sure that'll get you there.
Good luck
