Nice they really are AWESOME ! the rubber will be nice so ya can make a quick change at the lake without worrying about scraping off Permatex. im going to keep trying smaller ones until I can get 130 at idle and 160 wot. that way i know im covered for steel sleeve expansion and retraction with Alloy pistons that cool and heat at a different rate than the bore. with steel sleeves i never go wot until at least 100-110. shes well broken in now so there is much more tolerance im sure than fresh but thats whats so nice about all these sizes just try one that works for were ya boat. when i tested some in my promax i tryed cruising which i never do normally and had a good temperature that I could still stab it without worry. Im wot most of the time anyway. T-Stats and i dont get along very good at idle either.

Why not make them 1 pc. with different size holes so you can use the factory gaskets?

Dave thanks for the thought. The reason I did not build them out of a single piece is because they ended up being really thin to make the gasket work correctly. I tried both ways and I liked the 2-piece much more. Thank you for the thought! If anyone else had any feed back for improvment please let me know! I want to help grow this community!
