Tom,
I sold the only one I had a few months ago, but you can get those
gearsets from Canley Classics in the UK.  Be sure to specify that they
are for a Late Spit or GT6 diff.

Regards,
Joe

Subject: changing spitfire gear sets

Friends:

    I am attempting to change my 73 spitfire, rear end gear ratio from
the
stock 3:89 to a 4:11. I have a 4:11 ring and pinion from a 63 mark III,
was
told it would match up, but it doesn't. I am a low budget vintage racer
and
looking for advice to solve this problem.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I also have a 4:55 ring and pinion, to low a gear for our track,
probably good
for autocrossers, if anyone interested.
