I think for the group buy we will try to establish a timescale here, and I'll keep in contact with Dave regarding how things are going. Hopefully that way the communication can't break down, and no-one gets concerned. Before anyone 'signs on the dotted line', I think we must all be aware that this is a complex and time consuming business, and there may be delays. Having said that, delays are in no-one's interest (not least mine - I want my original kit fitting ASAP!).
THTBT...I'm sure you'll get your spoiler - maybe emails have gone missing (heck, it happens, especially with Hotmail - if either of you are using it). For what it's worth, Dave's been waiting longer for his twin carb manifolds from me

However, they get posted tomorrow...
cheers
James
