The troubling thing about this story is that TTI, as well as their distributors, are still advertising these for sale stating that they fit the short deck block. I was serious about buying these at the beginning of the year until I read this thread.
I haven't looked for quite awhile I didn't figure they would update anything with the price of the starter you have to use I would look elsewhere good idea but not on a low deck maybe they figure that not many people are using the low deck
