Had one on back order with Debbens for eons and they are still out of stock. Want to get my engine back together ASAP so anyone else you can recommend that might have stock in the UK?

I got some Wiseco stuff from these guys earlier in the year.
They do keep some Wiseco stuff in stock on the shelf.

Gremlin Race tech have nothing in stock and need to order from US (which I guess Debbens have done). Straightline racing don't answer the phone!

Any other recommendations welcomed....

Anyone got one as a spare they can let me have which I will then replace with the new one when it arrives?

Ginger Bear - I think that will work. I have a brand new O ring for the camchain tunnel so I think a 2 peice will work.

Do you want to sell or swap for the 1 peice when it arrives?

Let me know.

Jack - did look on Z1 Enterprise website but they only seemed to do standard sizes.
