Be prepared my electric Impact wouldn't touch my variator nut. I own a pneumatic impact but was afraid to use it for fear of snapping something. Thankfully it didnt and it worked So if they are still factory you might need something with a little more umph the first time. Good luck!!

I wish that was the case. I put that gasket on last year. I just need to add a plus 5 or 10 to the torque spec when the replacement nuts show up.

I played with this issue all last year. I am now the proud owner of sliders from 8 grams to 15 grams. My stock was 17 gram rollers.
My end result was running 9 gram weights, 1500 rpm yellow main spring and swapping out my final gear set from 13/40 to 15/38.
Before top speed on GPS 52 mph at 6200 RPM
After Top Speed on GPS 62 mph at 7200 RPM max speed on a downhill I've reached 66mph
Acceleration increased as well because of the lighter weights and heavier torque spring top end increased because of the final gear swap. But remember one change effects all others. So just doing weights and springs as I did without final gear swap will put you past the red line.
Good Luck and start out buying cheap ebay sliders. When you find what you like then spend the cash on a good name brand.

No doubt. That's why I'm looking and asking. But does anyone have a size that's they have used and know to work and be safe

Because all the hoses were open to each other in the air box I decided to go this route. Whole thing cost me about $10 between Ace hardware and Advanced Auto. I have sense moved this up under the rear fender to make a cleaner look.
