Can I ask why you did not start a new thread instead of resurrecting one that was last posted on 03-17-2008, at 09:51 AM

The ERA website, meanwhile, quotes 2600 for an Fe FE. I'd be curious to know if there's info like "alu frame saves XX, suspension bits ABC save YY," etc. I've done some thread searching, but not found many definitive numbers. |
