It seems to work pretty well though, so I don't think I'm going to mess with it. Reason being is coils that are close to original in design with correct core material ect are hard to find, and I didn't feel much like going through 3 different companies to get them all.

Good thing is I bought 2 complete sets of inductors for this chassis in case something went wrong, so if anyone needs a bag of inductors to do a complete replacement job I have them. They are all marked for where they go on the chassis, to make the task a little easier. If you guys would like, I can post up the Digikey parts numbers and quantities so you can order for yourselves. Meantime, I'm going to post the set of coils I have in the classifieds. Hopefully someone needs them.
