[QUOTE="Bebop, post: 722127, member: 5925"] Ok, let me back pedal some now we think we know everything... I just called RCV again. Sooooooo now there is only 1 size of bells. :****: RCVs email was confusing and mentioned another application that used the 5.337 bell and well, it was something way different and not compatible. So the 450/550 big bell is definitely 5.467 and doesn't fit in the stock knuckle bore. Just like the Reid version. I then called Jake again. His 450/550 knuckles were machined and he thinks the bore was machined too but doesn't remember. He is positive the bell slid through the knuckle and I can confirm that it did. RCV said they would consider doing a slightly smaller OD so it fits the stock bore when they machine the next batch, but now they have 20+ bells in stock and they want to sell them first. So the plug and play version is not out of the question, just delayed. We're back to square 1. I'm waiting to see what kind of machining is needed to fit the bells. I will order the 2 complete set Reid outers (C's, knuckles, HS arms, yada yada) on Monday through Jake and he told me he would do a video on the machining process for the SKP knuckles. Hope you're still following :wtflol: [/QUOTE]
