Thank dude. Evasive got back super quick saying they had them in stock so now I just gotta wait for Vivid to process my refund. Would hate to have them randomly ship something cause I asked to cancel and then Im stuck with both.

41's or 47's? 41's are just a little bit better than 43's.

The ST47's worked great on my heavy *** Evo 10 when I still had the oem brembo calipers in front. Noticeable difference from ST43's.

When I went to the Trophy calipers i had to go back down to 43's because the 47's where too much pad.

Should be fine with that power and weight. I needed the 47's with 5XXwhp and 3500lbs. The 43's couldn't keep up with the stock caliper/rotor size.

No, just make sure they're well lubricated when installed.

yep assembly lube on the cams, and don't forget to bleed the lash adjusters. I also like to line up the oil hole in the lash adjusters with the channel in the head when I re-install them. If any of your rockers are scored you should probably consider replacing them. Make sure the cam journals in the head aren't scored up too. New cam seals as well.

Only thing I would worry about is the lash adjusters getting pumped up with oil before giving it lots of RPM. It's possible it could throw a rocker if they aren't. There is a factory procedure for pumping up the adjusters if you look in the FSM.
