Hello, just wondering what everyone's opinion is on the 3-4 accumulator setup.

Common consensus seems to be either: block the case passage with a plug or install a super stiff spring.

I really don't like permanently modifying the case, so this time I stacked two pistons and some shims in the 3-4 cup and set the clearance at 10-16 thousandths of play. What are your thoughts???
