    It's ok, Guy's ownership is a lot longer than mine.

    I read some debate the other day on Ferrarichat, as to whether a Ferrari 308's OE track rod ends were BMC or not.
    Maybe british car parts aren't so out of place on an Italian car?
    I know that a Lamborghini Miura uses a Lucas windscreen wiper motor, rack and wheelbox.

    Rimmer do a quick rack for Spitfire/Herald. They used to advertise it as uprated and suitable for competition use, then they backtracked and wrote to everybody who had bought one saying it was only the ratio that had changed and they couldn't support motorsport use and offered a contribution towards a suitable replacement. I am unaware of any such thing other than a custom made jobby.
