Greg,
Two ideas:
Contact the RROC who not only have a club, but service Rolls Royces also.
http://www.rroc.org/content.asp?pl=338&contentid=338

Later MGBs have HIF carbs, so any British car mechanic should be able to 
work out the problems. I never heard of 1 7/8 " SU carbs, but I also 
never had a Rolls Royce.
