good job mark, you’ve done well! as sarcastic as solarian was being, he’s actually not far off. the arc is maybe 3/4" thicker than a stock smic, which would make a huge diff. ---

nice… are those Kevlar pucks on that clutch ? if so… your the 2nd person “other then myself” who has got them from euro-drive. I actually had a buddy request the exact same setup I had done for himself and they told them “we dont do Kevlar”. Which I found strange since they got me kevlar pucks but he ended up having no choice but to go with Ceramic. ---
