[QUOTE="livetohunt, post: 1813189, member: 100535"] Hah, thats funny that the brakes I just made are .670" to the shoulder. You would get more performance out of a 4 port, but I've never liked the extra length. And like you said, constraining the added length to 2" the longer brakes are out. Mine are 2" OAL minus the .67" shoulder so the added length would be ~.1.33" minus whatever is cut off for timing and .865" on the diameter. As far as losing the "braking" power with a larger diameter thru hole, I don't have any actual data besides running the total surface area of the .284" thru bore (0.0633") and the .328" thru bore (.0844") and saying that that would be about the amount lostby the % difference. On the last one I installed I did .007" clearance per side. Anyways, there are a lot of options out there, you shouldn't have a hard time. [/QUOTE]
