My Avanti was built with new casings and every thing in it was new. I started keeping a note on costs but that didn't last long (too depressing)
I would point out, although slightly off topic, that out of all the parts i bought some didn't fit or the quality was that poor that i didn't them. A lesson learnt and SR was the main supplier of quality parts that i had little problem with.
In the costs are loctite, silicone and grease to be included ?

Id also factor in a lazer cnc check on casing inc mag housing and endplate as Indians have there own tolerances and off centre maching. I have found Italian casings that have bearing housings slightly off swell

Just been thru that list on P1 and reckon I have 82 of the 152 parts listed
for the one I've been collecting for...
