Already done and they have gone back up to 175ish now 
May be worth getting a hi flow one for The money

First i would test the hi flow one, or get feedback from somebody that has used one. then make sure the copy is exact, apertures etc. oil feeds and starvation is quite a major thing if it goes tits up, especially on an expensive build

I've been in contact with Constella, they are willing to do a group buy.
Also asked if theirs could be modified to be a weld in instead.

Hopefully they can sort something, be bonus if it works out cheaper as a weld in and easier to fit.
