If these made it to a final production point, the way the rivet in the back wasn't countersunk wasn't ever going to be part of the final design but to make the first ones to test, it ended up that way and it won't affect the outcome of the testing.
Good to know, thank you.
I can understand the reluctance in pinning an organization to the pulley, perhaps it was the defensive answer that caught me off-guard. I have no doubts that it will be a good seller once it's proven. In a perfect world, I'd like a 63mm pulley as it would put the performance near the 181 pulley, which has always been a proven performer. I'm simply not keen on the way the 181 is installed (locking the flywheel) so I've stuck with my 65mm EC pulley.
If I thought the EC pulley could have another 2mm overall trimmed off of it, I'd be pursuing that route.
What kind of IAT's are being observed with the 62mm? Sorry if I missed it earlier in the thread...
Cheers,
