What Size Slug for 26M

I have searched the forums and read all the opinions on slugs and slides, but the authors that installed the slugs did not mention the size that works best. I have a 2007 26M and want to add the nylon sail slugs with the nylon shackles. I am hoping that someone can just tell me the slug part number and the shackle part number that works great on a 26M and where to buy them.

I have read Sumner's install with the included part numbers, but he has a 26X. I do not know if the mast is any different and did not want to order until I knew for sure.

Can someone help?

Never mind. Got the part numbers on my own. Several phone calls to Sailrite people and speaking with their sail expert. Also found a guy who works for West Marine with a Mac that was a encyclopedia on Macs. They answered all my questions, along with options that are currently available.
