	Nothing off the shelf, but LHD ones are fairly easily modified to fit. This applies to Hooker 1 5/8" (square port) and Headman 1 5/8" (dog leg port), basically the front pipe on our driver's side needs to be tucked in to clear the steering. This is the problem, Javelin here, but Rebel will be very much the same: After fixing: Made shiny: This would have been in the Aussie section here, but the great Photobucket extortion attemt would have killed off the images.

	thanks very much for your reply & photos .Much appreciated looks like engine bays are very similar. I have a headman 1& 5/8 set, left side fit no problem I think they are for a j20 jeep. they come out a bit further from the block & there lies the problem. guess ill be fabricating my own. thanks again. Rebel 70. i'll post some pics of the result
