I know these used to come up in discussions on this site and the LCGB site every now and again.. Has anybody been using them, and have any feedback/comments.

I bought 5, planning on using them in an RB based scoot, originally with the intent of swapping out the plates from a Tino kit. Part of the rational being that I can use oil rather than treacle in the gearbox.

I'm getting closer to putting that engine together, so starting to think about this some more.
