Thanks Rich, I ended up with torn ligaments in the muscles that run from my neck to shoulder. It's been very inconvenient.
Not to hijack this thread or to turn it into a bashing session but I am extremely disappointed in my FAST parts. Although the XFI does seem to operate correctly it is not as user friendly as they would have you believe and their customer service has gone to trash. I can never get through to Dave or Justin and it takes days if not a week or longer to get a return call from them. For the money we spent with them I would expect better service.
As far as the dual sync dist goes both you and I got some of the first ones shipped. Probably close to the first 5. I wonder if they have made any improvements since we got ours? I've tried to question them on who actually makes the housing but they will not disclose their mfg. and lastly as you and others have seen getting a cap that fits snug without going back to FAST seems impossible. Even with the index I can move my cap about 1/16" either direction and it has no clamping force whatsoever.

So like you, once I am healed up and able to work on the car once again getting rid of that dist is a top priority. I have considered going to a crank trigger at a minimum and possibly coil packs to get rid of the dist all together. I have also read lately that Accell has come out with their own dual sync dist but I have not looked into it at all yet.
