So the only two things I've gotten from this thread are:
1) LMT-E carrier: YES
2) LMT-E bolt: NO
What about the gas-port size?

You can use an adjustable gas block and is what I plan on doing. This is from Grant earlier in the thread.

Then decide on the most common ammo you are going to use (.223 or 5.56).
Turn the GB down so that it is about halfway closed. Load one round in the gun. Fire the gun. Did the BCG lock back? If yes, it is over gassed and you need to turn down the GB some more. Continue until the BCG will NOT lock back WITHOUT the can on the gun.
This (imho) is the ideal setup as that gun will utilize the back pressure generated from the can to lock the BCG back AND still function without the can. You will also get less debris in the receiver and on the BCG and less felt recoil.

A SOCOM could still benefit from a port adjustment but the SB was meant for the increased blowback of AAC cans.
I have one of the SLR Sentry blocks coming to try out. For me, just looking at the different designs, it's between that one and the Syrac. I don't know if I like the idea of adding parts to the mix via the adjustable blocks, but its a lot easier than getting a barrel configured with a custom gas port for most of us. Plus you have the adjustability, so you don't have to get the gas port size perfect.
