As mentioned before, I did use the rice sock method, I was fitting an intuition Luxury 27 medium density in a 26-26,5 upz rc10 shell.
I was using the oven method before with no problem but this time since it was a big liner in a smaller shell, I change the way I was doing it after discussing with the intuition guy.
Also, no problem with the Intel heel cable, while the liner not being as hot as with the oven way, there is a small gauge inthe liner where the cable stands.
