Guy Croft carries them in stock and they normally come with head gasket sets.

Cheers....

Yeah, the ones that came with my head set,i've managed to mash a few of them up.

I've just looked on the GC site and he only accepts cheques for orders under £20.....I can't remember the last time i used a cheque,so i've no idea where my cheque book would be if i even still have one.

I'll keep looking i guess.

Stem seals are only 6 quid.....i'm not falling into his evil trap and spending more money just so i can pay by 21st century payment methods.  ;D

I think I have some. How many do you need? PM me with your address. A small donation to the site will be fine payment wise.

Thanks guys.....

Although i've now ordered a set for an x1/9 hoping they'll fit,so i'll let you know if they don't. I'm thinking i'll need 8 as i think the ones i got with my head set are wrong,that's why i mashed them up. They're awfully tight!

The x1/9 ones fit if anyone's interested......they went on much easier then the ones supplied with the head set i bought.
