ACT don't appear to list them separately but would be surprised if they can't help you?

If it's those two long hockey sticks I've
got two in the garage that I don't need

Many thanks all, I did look on the ACT site, but as said, they are not on there. Thanks for the heads up guys appreciated.
Andy, can I ask, in the photo, are those off a cat exhaust or de catted? Just wondering what those small sections are?

They are different for a cat car Barry (shorter to miss the cats) or are you talking about "walking sticks" (sorry about your accident by the way)...

Well that's just cruel and uncalled for Phillpot. frown

Poor Barry needs all the support he can get right now.
Well, when he gets out of his bed...

These look very much like the hockey sticks from a non-cat car, but much longer. I had these on mine.
The old and the new !

Ah... Light bulb moment!
Barry S1 is right, those long hockey sticks did indeed come from my 1990 S3 2.9 non-cat car.
This might explain their length...
I have retained the silencer to reuse on my AJ30 engine conversion project. Having recently seen that the silencer 'normally' has 2 distinct sections... Mine doesn't !
Its just a big box with x2 short connecting unions at each end. Which I guess is why the sticks needed to be longer.
Anyway, that's my take on it.
