Modifying jockey wheels

After we verified that it worked, we purchased an aftermarket pulley and permanetly modified the bushings to give the right amount of float. We have been using the reduced float pulley system for several hundred miles and don't ever plan on going back...
EnterpriseZ,

Are you still happy with this solution? I mean, is the modified jockey wheel still giving you improved shifting?
