I'd think that your engine mounts would have to be in pretty bad shape for the header to swing 1/2" just from vibration. If you didn't replace the mounts when you had the engine out, you should take

If you have a Spridget with front disc brakes, the hot set-up is to convert to MGB rotors with Triumph Spitfire calipers. Basically puts a bigger swept area on the front brakes, for more effective b

When I spoke with the folks at Winner's Circle, I got the impression that their kit was pretty much a "bolt on". However, y'all have obviously defer to your experience. Thanks for the clarification,
