No kidding? He was screaming and just nailing it the night I went to hear them. I asked him about his leadpipe that night and his response was fairly simple; to him, the Pilczuk leadpipe was good fit for the horn.
What I meant to say was that the valves leaked so much that any over slotting by the leadpipe wouldn't happen on his horn. That leadpipe (R27X) is a good match for the Z and I don't think that any Z would be made too stiff by it. Ken Robinson and Walter White use the same one on their Zs.
