JFP - some people I know are known to have more than one! LOL
356Guy - I've read that tips have a lower incidence of IMS bearing failure. As far as the higher revs better lubricating a ball bearing based IMS bearing - I'd question that. I remember seeing a Pedro video where he spun an IMS bearing up in oil. At higher RPMs oil is slung out of the bearing and the bearing was shown to be running dry. I won't base a theory on one test, but it sure had me thinking.
I ended up going with Jake Raby's IMS Solution. The permanent nature of the design (it doesn't use ball bearings) made sense to me, plus at higher RPMs there would be increased oil pressure which would better lubricate that type of bearing.
