   I haven't done it since I want to stay C Stock legal.  Why put in a 
different OEM prop valve and be stuck with one proportioning setting (for 
lack of better term).  If you don't like the new prop valve you have to rip 
it out, put another one in and bleed the fluid all over again.  Put in an 
adjustable unit and be done with it.


IMHO.
