From my experience Wayne is a bit old and cantankerous.

I called to ask him about moving the upper shock mounts and using a YFZ 450 shock and he just about had a heart attack telling me it would never work.  I went ahead and did it anyway and 2 years later the set up is still working great.
He does not like to do anything out of the normal from y experience.
Let us know how it turns out.

Yeah that about sound like Wayne to a T, You have to respect Wayne, he was believe or not involved in the LT500 suspension back in 85, well this is what he told me.
