What did you use for a spool???? The mag reels that I*ve seen have spools that are flat on the end for the magnets to establish a field on.Even the old ocean city Inductors had a plate epoxied to the spool for the mags to react to in both the early plastic and the later aluminum spools.They had like 5 magnets in them.Its really none of my bussiness but I*m curious-- why magnetics these have a great system already in them that is now being copied by others(Shimano--Quantum--etc) by varying the blocks in size and the amount of them and the side bearing adjustment the c-3 has a great set up for most uses.On the T-mag I think that knob adjuster replaces the click assembly.I have the 525 mag and the t-mag and except for tournament casting adjusting the mag isnt that critical.The biggest thing with these is when you disengage into freespool the shaft is seperate from the spool so only the spool spins not the shaft.The gs series 525- 535 and the 545 don*t do this-- everything turns like in thier regular reels. If your just looking for a bigger reel with a mag Penn used to make series with this they were the 970-980-and the 990.I have these and a bunch of spare spools for them but I dont think they would fit in the c-3 However if you find parts let me know I*LL try one.
