  I think a couple of folks are missing the point I was trying to make. It
wasn't about the relative merits of Weber vs SU or whatever.
  The point I was trying to make was that to say that you shouldn't put a
Weber on your MG because of a ERRONEOUS belief that the factory didn't and
that the factory used SUs because they were the best(when in fact the factory
was a captive market for SU), is tatamount to admitting you 1). aren't up on
MG history as you would like yourself and others to believe and 2) innovation
probably scares the hell out of you.
  It's sort of like those folks you run across in every office who are fond
of saying "well that's the way we''ve always done it, so why shouldn't we
change.
  The bottom line is, tasteful modifications to an MG need to be tolerated,
indeed welcomed, SO LONG AS WE KEEP TO THE ORIGINAL SPIRIT OF THE CAR AND ITS
PURPOSES!!  
  Weber carbs fall into that catagory easily
