Jason will probably chime in. Lots of people are just going the Hydraulic route now instead of developing a good solid roller setup, as of yet there has not been a huge performance diff. bet. the big Hyd. and solid roller setups.

Jason's awaiting a new solid roller setup based on some new (custom) designs that Thunder has. They tried an experiment on his last motor that, well, didn't quite turn out to be what they expected. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> But they definitely have a handle on things, they've spent $$$$ on R&D, and I think you'll see some nice stuff out of Thunder very soon.

Jason's motor (#1) is the guinea pig for the new design stuff. Hopefully all will go well with it. Assuming it does... Well... motor #2 from Thunder should follow shortly thereafter... <img border="0" alt="[evil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" />
