Have you tried your local motor factors?

That's where I got mine (Eastern Auto Spares, Ipswich - but that's not much use to you! ). Not Halfrauds, I hasten to add - one of your local DIY auto maintenance jobs.

David

P.S. A bit more info (I found the instructions!)

The company who made it is called
"PMA Sandalloy"
Unit 8,
Waterside Road
Hamilton Industrial Park
Leicester
LE5 1NW

Phone 0116 246 1400

I don't know if they still exist, but it's worth a query.

thanks, i did try the local autofactors and they appologised but said they don't do them any more, in fact no one makes them anymore. Tried halfrauds on the off chance and got no where!

i'll try that number tomorrow (if i get chance)

PMA sold the part of the business that does carb conversions about 5 years ago. The company they sold them too went into liquidation about 2 years ago (although the woman i spoke to in PMA didn't know the name of second company).

why didn't you say Mike!!

Think I may have one lurking somwhere!

probably still attached to a 32-36 DGAV weber actually!

Payment for race assistance at the weekend?

sounds like a deal to me.........

Got the friday booked off as well

Ah, superb.

I've booked half a day and I'll go in early so I can get finished for 12:00 noon.

I'll give you a call anyway.

Cheers
