Thanks, Tracy. My neighbor is telling me there is a fairly new technique where they inject silicone into the pipe at the point of the leak (kind of like the balloon into an artery procedure ) that will most times repair a leak of this type. No concrete cutting so he says the cost is much less.

Two things I've never understood. Pipes in the attic or in the concrete. Glad to have a wood foundation and a large crawl space.

Mornin', Lou. Saw in the poser thread you are emailing Baker Drive Train regularly regarding the compensator. Are you sending them stats, such as, at this rpm this is happening, at this speed here's what's happening, during shifting this is what's going on? If you're not at liberty to say I understand.

I knew you guys were about more than just misdirecting mail!

Awesome pic! Yes. While I won't post pics till told I can yes. I am giving them info on vibrations at what rpm and gear and speed. First issue was that the s&s crank has a different output shaft length. This does not affect HD comps but it did affect the pre load on the spring pack of the baker comp. They addressed that. Stuff like that. Changing primary chain tension and spring pack pre load. Real world tests and all. It is much improved from the time I installed it. Not sure if anymore changes are coming. I think 2 of us are runnin $&$ cranks. I'm curious as to how the comp is working with the stock set up.

That's pretty cool and a technique I was not familiar with. Hope it works out for ya!
