Mine are I: 106.35g O: 95.78g Also, literature suggests that stock retainer locks are 7 degree. Can I/should I upgrade to 8 degree (P4529218) locks since I have a warm engine? Will it affect install height? I don't even have 1/2 lift, but the other 1/2 is nitroused.

We are brothers and sisters doing time on the planet for better or worse. I'll take the better, if you don't mind. - Stu Harmon
