get a set of shorties that are P-compatible. I found a set of ceramic BBK's for under 100. There are deals out there if you look hard enough.

I bought my set for 75, then when they arrive, I come to find they are stock ones, just beat in on 6 and 8
but they were ceramic coated, so I guess it was an ok deal, they work for what I needed, but now Im fine tuning things and need a little bit more.
