Barney,
For what it's worth, whn I discovered that the original motor for my MGA
heater was inop, I grabbed a spare heater motor with fan that was
sitting on my "junk" shelf. It came from an MGB, but I couldn't tell
you the year. Probably fairly late since the fan cage was plastic.
Fit fine, worked fine. Only difference I could see was a slightly
different fan cage configuration.
