I have a bunch of .016 left from my last order. It's about 18-inches by 4Ft. Would make great brackets and what ever. If the size fits your application I'll make you a good deal.

I've been using the "JBM" carb sockets on my 912 and my customer 912's for years without a problem. It's as good or better than the factory part.
