No, I already wasted my money once, it's not going to happen again.

Are you in contact with Guy? I was thinking about calling him after I heard back from GC.

@mac... I got my torrington bearings from Motion Industries in Hayward. Called them up and gave them the dimensions and they knew exactly what i needed. Only problem with mine is even though KW list's a 60mm spring, they are actually around 61-61 so the bearings wont fit. I got them for $45 shipped. That was 4 bearings and 8 plates. They had to get them from their Chicago warehouse.

They sell to anyone. I'm not sure if I got special pricing cause of being a local buisness, but I know for a "fact" that we don't have a account with them.

I've been looking at building a set of custom Bilsteins for STR and lapping use. Does anyone have any leads for reasonably priced & adjustable compression reservoirs? Penske compression reservoirs come out to about $500 each, if you price out all the parts in the assembly. Any ideas?

Thanks

Fox canisters, in the beginning of the thread I found a place. Ebay as well.
