Thanks George,

The seller responded that he measured the bore and it came up as 1.75, which is what the HIF6 ought to be. He now thinks that they might be HIF6s and that one of us got lucky (?) It occured to me that they might be HIF44s, which look a bit more like the HIF6s. Unsure if that would make a difference.

Anyway, I don't have a pair of individual shields, but I already have a single rectangular air box. However, I've already re-drilled the box to fit my HS6s, so drilled yet more holes in it, might not be such a great idea.

Any idea where I could snag another lower clamshell half (I have two tops, but only one bottom)? Same for the heatshields - none were included as part of the auction and I'll need to track a couple down.

I've already taken the appropriate measure to secure the bolts - as per your previous warning.

I'll stay away from the Grosse Jets for the time being.
