Also they are not a mirror image of each other, they have different ‘throws’ each side.

Will you be making them in 316 stainless steel?

Hi Kevin.
Making them oversize is a bit awkward, as to know what size you require.
These parts as you know are designed to move in the elbows to allow for engine movement.
Cheers
