Lads I bought some 57s off Tash and just received the Tuono stacks (Cheers mate!). I also have a 51 version Hooked which I've just modded to fit. Before anyone says this I read the guide Hooked listed a few years ago and just wanted to clarify a few things.
Firstly you can 100% use the Tuone stacks off Tash with no modification to the stacks. The lip the stacks sit on is the same between 51/57 although there's no groove to slip the rubber band on. The length of the underside of the trumpets is also the same so NO NEED to trim anything off.
Secondly, with the pots being wider by approximately 1mm you will need to get the dremel out. Just take a bit off in a circular motion till the pots slide in freely. Easy.
Lastly getting the lid on with the rubber boot in place is a bit of a ****. I had to trim a little off the front of the left corner of the lid, about 2mm. With a little patience you can get the pots lined in the lip and secured with the 6 Allen bolts. Mine now sits 100% flush and the throttle moves freely. An initial problem was lining it up and the throttle disc thing getting stuff on the lip of the trumpet.
Sorry if I'm teaching people to suck eggs, just though it mention it
