Ed, thanks for your reply. My other question is about the boots. Mine are still pliable/squishy, (I don't see any cracks) yet I'm able to turn them 360º. Is that normal? On some it feels like there may be 1mm or so of free play when I pull at them in and out.

You should be good

I noticed the boots on the other side of the airbox (the ones going into the carbs) pulsate when my "T" is running. Since I swapped out my fuel petcock, my bike idles a lot better.
What I learned is: proper vacuum seal is REAL important.

Eil, ya know, I'm glad you mentioned "closed cell." In the Airbox mixup guide on Cliff's site the gentleman showed a picture of the "ACE Narrow gap rubber tape" he used which specifically says "open cell" on the package! Being that we want no air escaping, closed cell certainly makes a little more sense!
