News Flash: I came up with another way it seems I'll do away with the seat post all together and make brackets to attach to the seat post clamp and have it go to the seat clamp modified to accept the bracket I make.
One other thing, why I didn't think about it first, I will try 1st to cut off top of the narrowed section of the seat post tube at the top, it won't affect the clamping force any. The buldge on the top of the seat post is I suppose so it does not fall down the tube. Not likely on my bike, but I see about an inch I can remove atop that and the seat will hover above the down tube by a minute amount.
