TBH, I was thinking about designing/building a dresser setup that also had some aero benefit, or at least a perceived aero benefit. Reason being, I'd love to be able to stick w/ the 185 and still get on the highway reliably, and maybe even make enough aero benefit and increase the torque capacity of the OEM motor (without sacrificing reliability) to hold a decent 60 MPH at lower RPMs.
