    Gentlemen, I found this on the local for sale site. Listed as a 3 into 1 header for Triumph 955i / T509 . I thought those engines had an oval opening not round but this one looks round. I’m wondering if it’s mis labeled, will this fit a late 90s Sprint/Daytona 900 triple?

    so they will not work on a T300 motor? If they won’t, then does anybody need them? 120 euro is the asking

    I was hoping I could maybe use them on a second CRK build at a later date.

    But they should fit early models no problem. Why sell if you have an early one.

    I don’t have it, I saw it advertised and was about to snap it up, but if I can’t use it, I’d pass on the info to someone who needs it.

    Honestly don't know for sure if they will fit or not. My gut instinct is not. Have a look at the Sprint Manufacturing website www.triumphparts.gbr.cc and compare it with what they have on offer.

    I put one on and the collector comes too close to engine casings they do fit but you need to do a bit of engineering (heavy hammer)to give it clearance,just in one area and on 1 pipe.
    I didnt bother in the end and went back to 3 into 2.
    I used on a t300 1994
