Me
Just picked it up from Greig.
He fitted my 4 synchro box with 850 diff housing and magic wand and 2.95:1 diff.
Had some wheel vibration from 95 kph onwards so had them rebalanced this morning. 125kph and smooth as.
Love the 2.95:1 diff 8)

1100S with RE266SS cam and Maiflow LCB stage II 3 into 1 and 1-3/4" SU.
Compression is believed to about 8.5:1
I was stunned that at 125kph it was still eager to go faster 8)
Why everyone doesn't use taller ratios than the standard ones amazes me. It is such a good cruising ratio but still accelerates well around the burbs.
Really happy :D
