I did the GPI drop ins. My engine builder checked the weights against the OEM stuff and it was surprisingly close (sorry I don’t remember the exact numbers). So we cut the rings, documented all the bearing clearances and away we went. Trapped 149 MPH today on that setup so it’s hanging in there at just under 1150 crank HP and 1000 WHP. Pretty impressive IMO.
