Quick query: Small Fuji SIC and Alconite guides?

Quick query. Did a search but what I found did not match my memory.

What's the smallest Fuji Alconite fly guide? I could only find size 4. i seem to remember a size 3.5 or 3.

And SIC - is 3.5 the smallest?

The alconites tend to have larger ID when compared to same size SICs so the 4 is larger than I need.

Thanks,
Mo

Mo,

size 4 is the smallest Fuji Alconite fly guide, to the best of my knowledge.

Thanks,

I'm goin gto be ordering from Matagi, if oyu guys want to get in on teh order e-mail me at xlrods@yahoo.com. For the past 4 or 5 years I've been using a rod built wiht Fuji MKSG 2.5 guides, these are the smallest ring guides available. I also had MKG size 1, these fit inside the ring of a size 4.

I usually order painted reel seats form Matagi, but I always get Japnaese market only guides and reel seat components, winding checks and handle trim rings.
