From my perspective I would have to give the DMH cutouts a
Plus I like the clean install without the need for any additional exhausting as I have seen on previous versions!
Well I look forward to your long term updates if you don't mind, I really want a set.

Holy Cow I feel as though I owe everyone an apology! I was looking over the shop invoice because someone asked me what size front pulley I was using with the Cog OD drive and noticed these are QTP Cutouts, not DMH as I have been saying all along. I feel like an idiot . . . and sorry to all for the misinformation.

Wish I could change the title of this thread because they are QTP cutouts NOT DMH, but here is the one month verdict . . . Still no problems with the cutouts. They seem to take an extra second or two to close but they seal off good!
