That would be the normal one, the one on the #44 car is twice as deep as the one on Les's site. I think Les offers two of them, the one I run, and the one Ron has on his car. Neither one are the one on the #44 car.

Sorry, I find modern engine swaps revolting. Keep your G, R, or U series in your Roadster!

Its tough to see, but the one on the #44 car is close to twice as thick. Les has two air dams on his site, one is the small spook like what I have, the other one (on the front of Ron's car) is different, but very deep. The one on the #44 car is like mine, but about as deep as the one on Ron's car in the pic on Les's site.

I've got a shot of the #44 cars airdam with my hand as reference. I need to upload it so I can post it.

Not to confuse the issue, but I now have the shorter spoiler like Will has. At one time I had the one pictured above in the "early photos" of my car.

I can't see most of the photos of airdams... Only the first few. I'm about to purchase the MG Spoiler and hope I get something my guys can work with!

That is the correct Moss Motors unit.
Keep in mind it has to be sectioned/narrowed by approx 3 inches to fit a roadster.

I went with the Les's airdam. The MG needed to much cut out to fit. This photo shows what happens when the rear spoiler is not installed correctly. Its sits down now in the rear. The Lower part of the airdam I added.
