The whole theory they have based those rings on, there are 0 gains on a gapless, from my little bit of engine building in the last 15 years.

As for the pro comps, just search around a bit on those, my expeiences where they were very poorly machined, bad rocker arm geometry and some other small issues, again just my findings. Barry Grant you can keep bud, UNLESS things have gotten alot better, for example the demon line of carbs I have touched when new had more shrapnel in them than a scrap yard, AGAIN my findings, everyone is different. You wanted comments, I gave them, I am done now, I wish you luck bud.


When I asked for comments, I was looking for constructive feedback I can actually use not for someone to just bash my parts list with no explanation. Take a look at the other replies on this thread... Do you see the difference???
Wow, it must be quitting time because you keep saying, "Bud"!!!!!
