Yes, but... these jets were used on a lot of other British cars of the period. Bristols, ACs, Aston Martin, Riley, Daimler... it's a long list. One person needs to manufacture and let it be known to the other clubs that they are doing so, and they'll sell enough. The 289s are probably represent the least in sales potential. I'm pretty sure Four Ashes in England will move them forward. They fit mostly high-end value cars.
