Seems cheap at less than AUD$200 from the shops here... That's like USD$150 or something.
I'll be going with the HX shells. I had the same conversation with ACL to get a more firm understanding of their target clearance and variation which didn't come out really. Their input made me wonder about what the journal (and housing) spec/tolerances really are, and do the different vendors work with the same numbers here... anyhow, these shells are fairly new so doesn't seem to be a lot of usage feedback yet. Guess we'll be on the first lot trying them out.....

Cheers

Ps. And yes same here, they are "dirt cheap" compared to some of the other. Spending the money on ARP bolts that on the other hand are 3x OEM.
