All of the shields for sale at Pelican look to be that type. Not getting any luck on a web search regarding the difference. I dropped one of the old ones behind the pump, haven't looked for it yet, I understand it can be tough to find stuff there. I've read of guys reusing them, using a ball bearing and socket to flex them slightly. I think that was for these. Not sure how to do that.

At the end he put in a bad one to test, I was watching pretty close to make sure mine were a distinct bundle. Little bit hard to see the squirt.

Second vid is of the 350SD he's selling, the nicer of the two he has. He said he might as $9K for it. If I win the lottery... Might be fun.

He has a couple of 617s he's saving to put into something, also a 616 attached to a 4 speed.
