Anyone running FTI's aluminum valve body,let me hear your thoughts. Especially if running hi/lo feature. Being FTI's I doubt any issues with them,but cost zero to ask and have cpl days before sale goes off.

When I was shopping for a hi/lo brake recently I ended up getting the billet FTI. Made two high gear passes at the end of the season and it worked well. ET and RT slowed similar to what others have posted.

4 lbs for 400 equals 100 per about norm. The .015 quicker react more why I am looking at it. Nothing on full tree with bos,but on pro tree(which few races around do) it could be difference in w or l.Plus I have one in car possibly sold for half of cost(yea break even and no gain) sounds better to wife,like I ever tell her what I spend.LOL

Thanks for reply's finger was already on trigger with 2 lbs pressure on 3 lb pull.
