Why not the 241 or the 292?

Ben Kallies · 05-04-2010, 12:27 PM

Junior,

No good reason I guess, other than it's what I'm familiar with. In my experience, most people seem to run the "820's". Perhaps they're just more common. Do you have any experience to support or refute this?

no, not really. just looked them up and saw where others were available. I know you are usually fast with what ever you have and it just made me wonder.

Junior,

While I appreciate the compliment, and would love for that statement to be true, you must be thinking of someone else. I've still got a lot to learn.

I got a single 820 head, bare and untouched to my knowledge.

$100 for the head, plus $40 to clean and magnaflux, or plus $58.50 to clean and pressure check.
