Others will probably disagree but I am not sure if you really need slides, I had them on Agent Orange and never used them, except when they deciced to slide themselves. On my fitting out of Reflection rachet blocks where probably the only new fittings I bought and probably cost more than the rest of the fittings put together. You could try if you have a couple of jam cleats is fitting them to the centrboard case and having ordinary blocks on the jib  but angles and positioning are quite critical, I ended up drilling a lot of holes in the centreboard case of killer custard before I got it right. This alternative may work out just as expensive if you have to buy both blocks and cleats and then you might still decide you want rachet blocks!
