Paul, 

   Conceding that I'm hardly an authority: if I were to 
start over, for the sake of simplicity, I wouldn't use 6-port end housings.  My preference would be to use 
NA rotors and housings (w/splitter) with 4-port end 
housings.  That means getting two blocks to get one 
good one, but it would be worth it to me.
