I used the MCW30 on the SB chip and it fitted well. The only thing I had to do was to reposition (change the direction) the metal holders on both sides of the block. Otherwise it wouldn't fit.I havent seen anybody do that yet on a Maximus. My guess is that it does not fit, but we would need some positive confromation to make anything official...
