One more thing, my bad for stating the obvious about the deck lid not fitting. After I posted it I was like,"hmm, that's not totaly obvious." I'm going to post a suggestion on Volksdent's brake thread next.

The big tradeoff for not hanging down is being top heavy, a couple folks have pointed out my balance may suffer.
WHO'S not going big hp?!? Scored a set of H-beam rods already and watching for a deal on some low-comp slugs for the ends of them.
Be careful over on dents threads, he's kinda picky ...


PJ, don't know if you've seen this chart before...
understand what you're saying, shouldn't matter if they are high angle down or back as long as it was within the safe angle.
