It turns out that these reinforced rubber exhaust hangers (cloth sandwiched
between rubber, like baffle seal material except 1/4 inch thick) are still
available from Moss Motors in Goleta CA! Actually within walking distance of
Santa Barbara Airport if you're so inclined and you park at Signature. If
not, 805-681-3400 or www.mossmotors.com -- it's on page 63 of their Spitfire
catalog and there's a nice drawing downloadable in PDF format. There's a
metal bushing that goes thru the rubber, but they don't carry those since the
average Spitfire owner can reuse theirs. A little piece of thick walled
aluminum tubing will do nicely here.
The part number is 812-080 and they cost $1.75 each. Where else can you get
an airplane part for less than two bucks?
