I still think you and I may be referring to a different thing. The decrease space I was referring too was from what I thought heybalor was revering to decrease by either adding another cup spring to his original pack or add a spacer inside to put some more pre-load on it. Adding a space inside the spring pack would only alter initial pre-load and not increase actual compression value (what ever that is) like another spring would. If you note my old album in my grf000 you will see I was careful when I set mine up a few years ago to make sure the area were you have the red circle to show and attempt to translate the fact that that area is very close. Think when mine torques at 165 the inner gap is only a 1/16" or so. I can see why you would add a shim that you show. I get now what you are saying.
Did you do the picture on CAD. Like to get a bigger copy of it for my forum folder if you don't mind. Pictures worth a 1000 words. Thanks.
