I read on hear that the atkins 2pc seals require more clearancing to the rotor. I was wondering if I could get some more input on this topic and how I should go about clearancing the seals.



Thanks,

Aaron

Yes, I read this also. That they will stick under high boost levels due to different expansion rates that the stock seals. I think JudgeIto was the one that mentioned something about adding some extra clearance but I never did get a solid number for how much was needed... maybe he will chime in...

I can't really answer your question, but you could always just call Atkin's and ask them. They have been very helpful to me.

Ok, I will try and get a hold of atkins so I can get a good grasp of the clearancing before I do anything.
