D/Sump K-series: Specifically I'm after the "J-pipe" and the long pipe which runs from the other exit of the thermostat round the end of the block and into the end of the external water rail (next to the brown water temp sender).

Any good ideas for the cheapest place to source these? Caterham parts only seem to sell a short version of the thermostat to water rail pipe, whereas a lot of the after market firms sell a much longer version.

Best prices so far are:

J-pipe: 34.74
'long' pipe: 38.32

Fergus. I'm your man. I have a good set of secondhand ones - all 3 - J, long one and the "Z" one. I won't split them but they are yours for £60 the set. If you want to check them out I'll bring them to work for you to have a look at.
