RV6: Ok, but change it up some so it doesn't look the same

I mean, if it means more competition and lower prices, I'm all for it. At this rate we're gonna be looking at less than 800 dollars for a complete new retrofit kit

Interesting ... Looks like the action flywheel is even lighter (20lbs) .I thought the RV6 was 24lbs.
The action is a 1 piece ,and i'm not sure but the RV6 looks like the ring gear is pressed on ?( 2piece)
Anyway i would wait untill there are some reviews out of people actually using them without any problems.Lighter could mean engine codes might come up.

RV6 indicated that they could have made theirs lighter, but that would have affected street driving comfort. More mass = better damping.

I don't remember the ring gear being pressed on when I did my install, but looking back at the pictures, it's certainly possible.
