refering to the "government work" and the current administration lol. nice. im in contact with kevin, from IJ, and i think were trying to figure something out. we think we would need to mod the windage tray, remove some material for the PU tube. going by what dark one said, i prolly cant run the Trippe set up, b/c the bottom trap doors simply wont fit? ie it would hit the bottom of the pan. correct?

from IJ

"I checked an old setup and the pickup curve is just about even
(touches) the bottom tray. You want it NOT to touch so I will delete the grating in that area. You will need to put some Prussian blue indicating grease on the tube and grind a hole in that bottom tray until you have at least a couple mm clearance all around."
