[Pic] Here's where my LCA scrubs...

Can I just grind a little off the LCA, because it's just a MINUTE amount that scrubs, and it only does it when I'm at FULL LOCK right turn.
You can see in the picture where the wheel weight has been ground off the edge.

Even 20's will rub if there's too much offset (they'll just rub in a diff place).

No Tim, it won't hurt to trim it back. I typically trim mine all the way to the shock mount w/o issue. Just don't straight cut it though (90° cuts will cause stress cracks). Use a 7/16" drill bit @ the end of the area your going to trim to so the end of the cut is rounded instead straight.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

It's seriously so embarrasing, I usually DON'T turn all the way lock-right. But I will do what Scoti suggested, thanks

If I had that problem, I would use more throttle to swing the backend around.
