That's great news Steve. Thanks.

The PO removed my washers and heat shields. I installed the 6 blade. I
removed 1/2" from each blade and it worked great. Now that you mention this
though, it makes me think that the 3/8" - 1/2" variance that folks recommend
for removal could come from the absence of the washers.
Thanks for the reply Steve,
Jeff
