I'm the guilty party. I gave cosmogirl an offer on my system, and I'm sure it will move at my asking no matter what he decides. It's OK one way or another. He can show the images and tell of the deal...

Bump.

There was an old man of Nantucket
Who kept all his cash in a bucket;
But his daughter, named Nan
Ran away with a man --
And as far as the bucket, Nantucket.

BTTT

A painter, who lived in Great Britain,
Interrupted two girls with their knittin'
He said, with a sigh,
"That park bench--well I
Just painted it, right where you're sittin.'"

Thanks for asking. You need to search threads with "4.08" and get outside opinions. I have never seen negative threads after installation. Almost exclusively 6MT guys.

I thought the 9.0:1 CR pistons from Wiseco would be 'soft'. Not at all. Impressively powered low and midrange. The VVEL has so much influence that the CR was a non factor.

My input.
