They ran out of them last year.

If you are going to go through the labor to install the blocks, I'd highly recommend doing the job with the ones that are going to last. My .02

And yes, we have ours in stock and ready to ship.

You can take the old blocks out sand down both edges like 1/16 of an inch, including brass spacers and put them back together with some grease.

Just went threw my stock mounts and tighten them up, feels good now.
Might up grade in the off season. Checked out the condition of my exhaust
while I was tore down that far.
