Default Magneto hold down clamp

Ok my search technique needs refined or something. I spent the last 45 minutes searching ACspruce and VAF for info on MAG hold down clamps. I have two, but need two more to finish installing my Emag/Pmag combo. I think Slicks use the same.

Where do I get them? Anyone have a couple spare ones they could part with?

Hi Brian,

That is surprising that you had to chase those clamps up, mine were supplied with my Plasma III kit.

I bought my emag/pmag used, and received 2 clamps. I emailed the guy who built my engine and he has a bunch.....they are on their way "no charge".
