Blue Pig owners, what's your perfect fork length?

My 18-inch frame is en route from CRC. Have a couple of forks options and wanted some input.

This will be a backup/secondary rig to my main bike, a Titus El Guapo. I run the EG with a 170mm Lyric air. I like slack bikes. I ride pretty technical Arizona terrain, lots of rocks, drops, chutes, etc. But I still want the bike to track properly as I typically don't shuttle (ie, I'll need to do some climbing on it).

Not finding many 150mm not-tapered forks in my price range. Really looking between 140 or 160mm forks. I'm leaning toward the 160 and just want to make sure the much travel isn't going to make the bike goofy.

Anyone running this frame with a 160 fork care to chime in with your experience? Thanks.
