I just got mine put together and it spooled pretty evenly as long as I went pretty slow when cranking the line on. I put 20# fireline on it. I just wanted to post as a heads up for anyone else who buys the kit. I found that I had to add a small lock washer to the screw that connects the bail arm to the rotor in order to get a tight fit and another lock washer on the counterweight screw to prevent the end of the screw from occasionally rubbing on the spool during retrieve. Just thought that might help someone if they run into trouble making the kit work - I know one member here that snapped the screw on the bail arm trying to get it tight enough
