I just installed these, I'm not sure if its an AT issue but honestly there's a lot of wiring that I ended up having to move around to get these in.

I do feel some improvement on the low end - that being said it's NOT a night and day difference. Still, I feel the BPB are probably the best bang for buck upgrade available for the twins right now.

These blocks are advertised with the Crawford logo, but plain when I got them?
Did I need to buy the stickers to?

So not only did I install the blocks today I also installed an off and lightweight crank/water pump pulleys. Verdict feels good. Was it worth the money is subjective . Not doing these mods and wondering if it would or wouldn't make a difference was killing me . I'm just happy I did them and got it over with.
