There are stops under the leading edges of the clam shell that can adjusted in seconds to bring this into alignment.

I find that my actual clam shell leading edges are not uniform and don't line up well with aluminum cover plates in front. It looks like the nose of one is bent down slight as compared the the other. Does anybody else have this or am I not adjusting correctly?

In plan view the arc of the clamp shell edge does not match up up the covers......just a 986 thing I imagine.....this has always bothered me.

Is there a light weight/carbon version of this thing.....then I can kill two birds with one stone.
