I PM'd you back. Glad you like them...if you look close at the photos you will see that the bottom side of the billet block has been slightly milled out to shave some weight.

Sam and a very good friend of ours made these. I'll let Sam reply with contact information as I am not sure how they plan to go about making and distributing.
I have seen them in person and can attest to their quality.

Disadvantages: You may feel some engine vibration...most like it but the polishers probably would not.
