Tony,
how long can you wait? I can get the drawing done at work but tolerances might be a bit hit and miss unless the mating parts are available for measurement.
Cheers,
Ian

Cheers Ian,
i wanted to replace the shafts before racing next year,
BUT need a pair of shafts to measure as mine are modified and from a standard efi, and are a bit worn and have a bit of play in them,

Hi Tony
I have a twin plenum lying around in the garage I could lend it to you if you promise to let me have it back again unmolested.

Hi Tony,
If the can be sent to me I will get them drawn up as my brother inlaw is Senior Draftman for BAE.
And then I will see about getting them made.
Is that ok

Received the shaft from Alex (Many thanks). Drawings have been made at reasonable cost and supplied to tool maker and he is asking how many sets we need as if its a reasonable number will make a jig to help production.
Initial ones will be made in brass but could also make in stainless if required at additional cost.
So if you know of anyone who is in need of replacement shafts can you let me know asap.
