Moss Motors has an EGR valve listed for California model Spitfire's:

> I had the same problem a couple years ago after one of THE MOST THOROUGH
emmissions inspections I've ever had.  It lasted over an hour, and the
technician kept phoning people for consults when there was something he
couldn't figure out.  Anyway, I found the EGR valve on E-bay (where else?).
In fact, it was the first time I ever used E-bay, and it took less than a
week to get the part.  That may be your only source.  Before turning to
E-bay, I found that it's the ONLY replacement part for the Spitfire that
isn't currently manufactured new by somebody, somwhere in the world.  The
upside is that my Spit stopped backfiring as much as it was, and at least
I'm helping in some small way to keep those code red days down here in DC.
