They're the folks putting out the good gaskets for the manifolds-to-head and intake-to-exhaust junctions. I've bought several from them and they've shipped them "up over" in a pretty decent hurry.

Thanks, Dan. That makes me feel better. I ordered some from gaskets from them a month ago and still have not received them. I've gotten a bit of slant stuff from both private parties (eBay) and businesses in Australia and always been treated well. Guess I'll just have to hang onto my shorts a bit longer on this one.

Nev and Kev seem to be good blokes.
Their reputation here is good, their work is not cheap, but the quality matches the price.
I have seen some of their fibreglass products etc, all look good.

OK. Since nobody is raising any red flags, I'll just assume they're dinky di and that that the gaskets wound up on a slow boat. The engine isn't built yet, so it's not like it's holding up the show or anything.

Thanks, all.

They can be a little slow at times for the usual legitimate reasons (running a small biz like this properly is a full-time job; customer-contact is another full-time job). Give 'em a jingle on the phone if you don't see the gaskets shortly.

Just to wrap this thread up: all worked out very well with GPRS. They are 100% stand up folks. Order with confidence.
