Speaking of which, I might have to hold off on modding it this fall. I am currently putting through my OTS (Officer Training School) package together for the Air Force, and if I get it, I might be extremly busy for a while. But when I am done with my training, I will be a commisioned pilot for the Air Force, which will equal more than double of what I am making now, which in turn equals lots of mods for you to install in my Formy. Either way, it will probably have to wait till next year at least because when I come home in late August, I will only have a week, and I figured that wouldn't be enough time for you to install everything and find someone to tune it.

Are you running T-bolt clamps, or the standard worm style?
