Strong.
What size? Are they front or rear or both? I'm guessing rear as although less stress there the rears on the C32 were weedy compared with the fronts

I need to seperate the IC system before I get a good dyno, it's just to warm otherwise. I was supposed to get my new IC seperation kit now when I was home, but it's delayed. So I'm not going to be able to dyno untill next time I'm home, in July.

I'll get back about my numbers then!
