One reason might be that the E0's were only single-pass extrude honed. The second pass done on E1's and later does open up the runners a fair bit.
Incorrect!
Discussed thoroughly when the Extrude Hone Group Buy came about.
To summarize, all SVT UIMs were passed the same number of times - same flow for 98, 99 and 00.
Confirmed by Extrude Hone and Terry Haines. I also took measurements of all runners between a 98 UIM and a 00 UIM and there was almost no difference between the two in the measurements.
