I'd have much more incentive to get going on mine if TBM would get me the retracts it promised. The Robart option is obviously best, but a huge investment I hadn't planned on and I really want to go...

Looks like you have good clearances all around. How much arm twisting did you need to apply to get that exhaust unit from Kelvin?
