No flames there Steve. You're going to be happy with those cams and the pulley.

Bingee - I'm not knocking the value of the SE comp, I just question it as a "solution" to starter kickback. I've heard, and have no problem believing, it makes a great deal of improvement in the other areas you stated earlier.

As always, there are many ways to deal with a problem, but in the case of kick back, it's my opinion, compression releases are the only real solution.

Or, it's putting a "band-aid" on the problem. I and a lot of others are happy with the results. That's all I intend to say about it.
