The plain bolt holding the backfire arrestor on just wasn't doing it for me so I decided to head out to the garage make some custom knobs.
The prototypes show in The 1979 Ski Tique Resto-Mod Story seemed to get some attention so I cleaned up the design and made up this batch. Each knob was turned & threaded by hand on my 1939 bench lathe before heading to the CNC mill to get machined & engraved. I have 2 "Correct Craft" and a "Ski Tique" available now and can make more if needed. $20.00 ea - Shipping Included (Proceeds = boat gas ) |

Looks good! Can I get a Low Profile version, as I am using a K&N Arrestor on the Excel? Add to the Bling.............

Sure, If you know what height will clear I bet I can come up with something.

Those are nice. Probably won't run one on any of mine as I need all the clearance I can get, but if you are set up to engrave other items I may have to send you some stuff...

As tall or as short as you need. As they are currently made they are .750" overall. |
