@moon47mars A K5HA has the same bells as a K5LA (just uses a high-profile manifold). Now there is a difference in sound (not with the notes). On a K5HA, all 5 bells will blow simultaneously while on a K5LA, the outer 2 bells are a 1/2 second behind the inner 3 bells.

@VwErik88 But the end of the heater channel is supposed to be perpendicular (and not angle). Thus the mounting holes don't line up, but as with most aftermarket parts, they take a little finessing.

Don't the single-ended K-cars use those horns?
This has been an underrated song, and a great harpsichord intro.
