I wrapped up this 2500C build a while back and wanted to share. Big shout out to my bud Joel C. for helping me acquire a few very hard-to-get parts and for the wealth of knowledge he possesses when it comes to these ABU beauties. The Avail Mag Brakes are legit, and the reel is a TRUE casting machine. Blown away by its capabilities.
Very little has been left stock on this one.

Just a STELLAR build, Greg!
Did you ever get a weight on it finished...I know these aren't weight-weenie MG reels at the end of the day.
