Tim is correct.  If you are using the AJP Connectors, you are SOL since it
will be Apache/IIS/SunONE that sets these headers.  With the Standalone
HTTP/1.1 Connector, of course it is Tomcat that sets them.

The "Date" header is mandated by the HTTP/1.1 RFC (and, without looking, I
believe by the HTTP/1.0 RFC).  If you strip this one, you have one very
broken server that probably won't play well with browsers and proxy-servers.
The "Server" header is mostly fluff.  However, porting the TC 3.3 feature
that allows you to configure the value of this might be worth doing.
