I'm not saying you have to, but check those plates often, especially with the torque you are going to be putting on that system.

Only time will tell whether or not the lexan "fails" in that system, but we're not taking any chances and remaking them in aluminum.
Thanks for pointing that out! We'll definitely have to watch those lexan plates when we start testing.
