Which is exactly why I suggested the 19p x 14 1/2 dia ss. I'm thinking that with 225 horses he'd have no problem swinging a 21, so I moved down a notch for better hole shots.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.
(Leave the rest to God)

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
