Thanks for everyones advice on this. I did go ahead and order a pair of
permacools. I got the 16" instead of the 14" because jegs was out of the
14". So the install will be somewhat more challenging. Having the bigger
size might turn out to be a good thing if I ever actually do put a 360 in.
I also ordered a flexalight adjustable control. So I should have some fun
a the track Sunday.
Thanks again
