Been wondering this myself.
Is there nothing else that can be used?
The courtenay one is a bit expensive.

How much can you bore it out by Dave?

cant remember, not much though.
its a bit of a pointless mod really as the standard inlet size is fine for the power you would get from a mantzel. the biggest restriction is the lower part of the inlet.
