I use a similar build in my AL (PPC, 2MLs and 2SRM6s w/XL275). I used to run it with an XL265 and 3MLs - but it always seemed to run just a tiny bit too hot. If you spent time spamming your PPC and then had to jump in for a close range fight, the heat meter was always a concern... So with the new quirks, I've upgraded my speed, dropped one ML (which actually boosted my DPS anyhow), and I kept my 3rd ton of SRM ammo. The XL isn't an issue at all - cause the weight it saves me is what allows me to run at 98kph with a PPC on my arm. And having a PPC on a fast chassis gives me the option to fight at range - something I try to build into all of my mechs when possible.
