Hi John, What a thing to happen, and just before Peppercorn too!! Karmann Konnection list them in their catalogue in sets of eight for 25 or 30hp engines - not the same as 40 horse I'm afraid. :cry: six-o-one

Thanks Malc, I'll have a chat with KK this weekend if they are at Malvern (and a hunt around all those cardboard boxes full of grubby engine parts!)
