Theyll be to fit a cut stock system, and I expect will take the usual 52mm race can.

Saying that though, if you already have a scorpion can on it, you shouldn't need the adaptor kit, grab a pic and someone will be able to help

Ah, slight misleading there, but the point stands, if its got an ART stainless on there now, you should already have an adaptor there, unless its like my spare and the inlet is angled and as wide as the pipework (~60mm I think) the RO adaptor kit should be fine for that can, I might even have a spare knocking about :-)
