    Default Wanted: Swift DB3 Pinto headers

    I need a set of headers for my Swift DB3 2-litre (FC Pinto engine) so thought I'd ask on here before getting them made over here (UK).


    The spare set I had for my Van Diemen RF86, which I thought may fit...don't!


    Does anyone have a set hiding in a dark corner of their workshop? I can sort shipping if you're okay to pack

    I have a like new (but old) stainless set of primaries which I believe are off a Swift. I bought them long ago for the collector for another project.

    Can you send a pic of what they should look like so I can confirm?

    cheers,
    BT

    (PS won't respond until beginning of the week. Mosport race weekend starts tonight!)

    Bill - thank you for your help! So far as I can see, they need to be similar to the black ones here:

    These are fitted to my RF86 and measure just over 5" from the side face of the head.

    My spare set are very different and, as the next pictures show, stick out further (nearly 6"), which means they don't fit inside the chassis tubes:

    Just measured mine - they appear to be just under 5" from the side of the head. Yours for the cost of shipping + a $75 donation to Apex. If interested, we can take this to PM

    cheers,
    BT
