Default Delay in production

Hi, Regarding the manufacture of the carrier downpipes, We hit a snag whilst making the downpipes yesterday. I decided to complete the manufacture of 10 lefthand downpipes, but the right hand ones will need to be completed after christmas now due to alignment anomalies

Its pretty clear a 21 stud block exhaust manifold is the same as a 24 stud now, but I plan to phsically check this before sending out any downpipes, so I am now ordering enough parts to make an extra 3 sets.

If anyone wants a set there are now 3 sets going spare, on this run i will have to buy the flanges in stainless to save time.

They will be £60 a set.

the following people have a set already coming; jordan, ben, ross.

thanks kev.
