What vintage Spitfire? If you are comparing the brakes to anything modern then you are just seeing the change that 30 years makes in brake technology. If you changed out the front components then ty

Have you tried pulling a spark plug to check the mixture? If the plug tip is white you're running too lean...etc. And what type of exhaust system did you put on? A tube type header? I'm not familiar

Part of it may be where the pipes terminate... but it is an indication that the mixture at load is tad too rich. The Monza exhausts are a less restrictive system than the stock muffler. Seems to be
