Some opinions off the top of my head: Stands: Splurge the extra $10 or so and buy nice beefy ones with horrendous high capacities. Four-footed bases are slightly better than three-footed, and welded

This is getting into a side issue, but does it really heat the fuel/air, or is it intended to heat the carburetor... as a heat source to cut the choke or whatever is necessary to reduce the fuel/air

Uh, are you saying that the new rotor is already below listed minimum? Odd. Regarding the out-of-round (warped?) problem, perhaps they got warped by brisk application of an impact wrench. BMWs and Ho
