I bought a new water pump for my Spitfire. It's a mongrel but I went with the 1977 large upright radiator and the clutch type fan. Before I mounted the clutch on the new water pump, I heated it up wi

Someone on ebay is selling 1" front swaybars. The first went for $127. Starting price $99. One of these on a stock swingspring Spitfire would cause what? Understeer? Larry ___________________________
