Camber Compensator

[Straker]

Hi all,

Does anyone offer one of these for early Spitfire in UK?

Found this when googling:

http://www.spitlist.info/CamberCompensator.html

Interested in any advise or experience.

Thanks

LOL a UFO fan... just bought the entire set on DVD...

I see you've already found the Spitlist pages on the compensator, although I was sure one of the major suppliers had shown an interest in their remanufacture... I could be wrong, and it may have been just this page i remember it from. I'll keep looking.

Thanks Colin,

yes always wanted to be an interceptor pilot and had a huge infatuation for Lt Ellis...

Anyways have found Ralph Hansen of Apex Motorsports on Facebook. He has these reproduced in USA and sells them world wide. Mine is ordered......

Let us know how it fits and performs... please!

This, rings a very ancient bell. It is possible that My old Vittesse was so fitted, never really thought about it at the time and anyway "er indoors" drove it more than I did, it was her "commuter". But I vaguely recall it having a Rear "Anti Roll" bar, which I now realise was NOT a factory fit. In line with "percieved wisdom" of the day it had a bag of sand in the boot anyway!. So if anyone out there has XGH 469G (known to be on sorn). It would be interesting to know.
