Take it out......trust me on this one boys.
Now, keep in mind also...I had the front cover milled by Farnsworth, and I used the double gasket method. I was trying to make double-dog sure that this wouldn't happen. The chain didn't fail, obviously....but it was still rubbing.
I'm going out on a limb here, and saying that vendors should really put up hard stats that they actually do R&D on things. Not pointing fingers or anything....they know who they are.
