4047 kick, mc012 toms, 57 snare, m160 somewhere, RFT PM750 a few feet in front of the kick.

Wow, awesome - those drums do sound great. So a spaced pair as room mic's - did you angle them in (or out) from the kit, or basically have them shooting straight ahead? I'm thinking my next drums I'll try something similar - 414 B/ULS as mono OH, and a pair of oktava mc012's as a room pair.

One ElectroVoice 635A Overhead+ Two RCA Varacoustics in Stereo Room + One Shure SM7 in front of the kit = Dirty/Grungy/Ugly Goodness
