Hi Joe,
Thanks for the info., I'll check them out. Rolled edge or no, it really wouldn't matter to me. It just would be nice to have mufflers that aren't rusted or pop-riveted! I thought about EPCO also, stainless would be nice but expensive. Right now I need to finish the '71 Ambo before starting anything else. Cheers, Charlie.

 Charlie,
Congrats on your Sport acquisition-you're going to like it!
The suplier in England is called The Italian Vintage Company. I think his
web page is www(dot)italianvintageco(dot)fsnet(dot)co(dot)uk. I have an old
issue of Old Bike Mart that shows a listing for the V7 Sport for 85 pounds
sterling each. Problem is that the newly manufactured Shark Gills have the
edge curled over, which I think ruins the look. A few years back I was
working with Top Epperson (Epco) on making a stainless replica-he got held
up with trying to develop the tooling to punch the louvers (gills) & the
project stalled out. Last time I talked to him he was interested in tackling
the job again-that has been about a year or so. You might want to contact
him to see if he's got it figured out.
Good Luck!

Joe in St Louis
