Re: Spitfire headers update

[Jim <jimfmd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all

I still not have fitted mine yet, but watching this email with much 
interest.

Why do they sell a product like this that does not fit?

When I ordered mine, (for my 63 Dodge Polara 318) I was not told of any 
cutting or modifying that needed to be done.

Jim
