Well, this cassette definitely has 7 sprockets on it. And it does not appear to be long/wide/deep enough to accept any of my spare 8S cassettes.
and the hub body (as I think I wrote) measures about 31mm compared to the 35mm of some of my other shimano hub bodies that presently sport 8sprockets.

Can you direct me to some info on squeezing 8 sprockets onto a 31mm deep hub body?
