Very interesting, will these be available at a later date or are they "get them while you can"? My lower shaft is leaking from the rear o rings, but I dont want to pull the motor to fix it so I'm not going to worry about it since I have a new motor (with an early block and B-shafts) on a stand. I would like these new style plugs for that engine, but I wont need them for quite some time.

For now I will get 26 early and 26 late seals (2x13 sets) and will use one late set myself. These are a part of group buy at discount price (based on order of more than 50 pieces). I can get them later, but when this initial batch runs out, price will be $25 (20€) per peace.
These are made on lathe, so if I order them by pair, they charge half lathe/operator hour per pair + material..
I have ordered production and should get them next week, there is a bit of an unexpected production delay, but they will get them done asap.

Haven't got them yet, but the late seals should be ready after holidays.
I have a bit of a problem with early measurements, can somebody please measure early plug inside diameter and inner width + block hole diameter?
I gave the early measurements to the shop but they've lost them..
