It comes down to cost. Will the product sell at a price point at which you can make money, and do the updates matter to the majority of the buyers who will use the product.
Most guys won’t spend the money for the one like Matt did, when they can get a screen or solid tray for less. They will say “will I see any difference?”
And when you say “yeah, maybe 10 HP” they will laugh in your face and say they’d never notice that.
But, that 10 HP plus another 10 for a good scraper, plus 8-10 HP for good oil, plus another 8-10 because you can reduce the oil in the pan and you’ve now gained (saved actually) 36-40 HP.
It’s all part of a system. Any gains don’t stand alone.
And it’s hard to quantify the cost savings in parts. The oil has LESS air in it, oil pressure goes up so you can reduce the volume of the pump and save a horse or two...maybe.
