I've been looking at the MK10+ & the MK20 first stages for a while. I like the simplicity of the MK10. The MK20 looks like it has a weak point in that the LP ports are mounted on a swiveling turret. Either first stage I get, I'll match it with the G250 2nd. What insight can you provide about these first stages?
