Im about to get a new full dyno tune for N2O and a new stall( and because I have been having issues with the old one), but I want to start with a fresh Blade, new plugs, New O2's, etc., for tuning purposes.
How much you guys want for one?
Thanks.

I made a pretty nice looking garage door out of the hundreds of brass JDM and ford blades collected. With a little white rouge and a day or so with a polishing wheel, it turned out to be quite an attraction...

Hahaha nah just want a few in reserve. Also want one to practice knife-edging, w/o having any tb down time involved. I currently am working on a rotating core basis LOL. 9 is great, I was hopin for 5 or 6 
PM'd ya my addy. Thanks bro!! BTW...things are going much smoother now with the new materials

Just to add to that though, now that you mention the term 'knife-edging' and people may have already read it...That is a no no...Not only does it do next to nothing for performance, but that removes the already slim .062" seal of the unit which could cause a higher idle N/A, and a guaranteed problem with FI. The blade may also stick itself to the wall of the unit if slammed closed as it often tends to be the case with stop and go city driving. Just something to think about before proceeding...

Ahh. Well then I guess I'll just leave them alone lol. I knife-edged the blade on my car w/o any negative results, b/c I don't take away all of the flat surface on the edge which creates the seal. I just smooth off the edge a little. I'm vary wary of messing with parts that could screw up the idle, hence why I want a few backups plates
