My recommendation----

Make four sets. Add the total time to make them and add the raw materials. Divide total by four to get cost. Double that for retail. Give me one set and sell the rest for the retail price. ;)

Seriously, I think I'd be more interested in some new slides (throttle valves), or maybe some seriously slippery plating on my old slides.

you might have found a market......the only person i know drilling these out and repairing is our boy wg.....you can check his site for prices he is getting......for a lot of us running those carbs, an option in the event of a repair would be good.......
29mm smoothbores went out of production about 20 years ago......the sudco tuning manual i have is for reference only.......all the 29mm smoothbore Sudco parts are long gone from what i understand......
