Hi,

Stoddard or NLA in the States are your best bet, but they aint cheap. Wait for a good exchange rate. Steer clear or Sierra Madre bargain 4x short ones for £100. When I came around to fitting them, they were pitted badly chromed and the bolts were rusty. I managed to salvage the best two for the front, but even those aren`t great.
You`re still looking at £80 each for the short European ones, £180+ for taller or exhaust exits.
Roger Bray do them for £113

That list won`t get any shorter, ther`s always something to change/modify/impove.

How are you finding a Pilgrim build?

Bodywork has been very problematic (poor shutlines and different thickness fibreglass) and as a result its been in a very slow bodyshop for months. looks pretty good now though. Undersealer is finished. Priming this week. Can't wait to get it back!
