I'm not sure about this bigman as the Abu 6500 C4 has the 6.3:1 gear ratio as standard. The hanldle side plate on the 6500 C4 is exactly the the same size as the side plate on the Mag Elite so I dont see why he couldn't just exchange whatever's inside the C4 reel as far as gears go to the Mag Elite.I heard on the grapvine that there just isnt room to fit a decent set of gears into the slideplate of the abu mag.
u want to try this web site for all your fishing rells bearings great site www.ball bearings ceramix &miniture bearings .coi have a SL20SH and that has 6.1:1 its an amazing reel!!! sooo solid!

Abu do fit this ratio on certain 5000 & 6000 modelsAlso if there is plenty room then why wouldnt Abu fit them themselves?
