I may have not been clear...
The first set of sachs forks that les did were previously revalved by another shop back east - this shop ground out 6mm i.d. shims to fit 7mm i.d.
When Les disassembled the forks - some of the shims had "come apart" - not good....
And yes, after he is done with the sachs fork - he has modified the sachs fork to employ the more commonly available smaller i.d. shim as well as fixes to other circuits in the fork. He spends a great deal of time on each set and reworks them very completely....
Normally he doesn't like me to say what he does - but given given the difficulty and man-hours required - I sincerely doubt that anyone else will take the time or effort to copy his work on this one...

p.s. I am "retired" and no longer actively participating in this forum - but when I see someone doing something that could damage their fork and cost themselves alot of $$$ - felt I should say something...
