Bob,

Rather than do all that fuss just do this. Get a piece of trunk seal for MGB.  
Might even find one at a junk yard.  Cut 4 pieces about one foot long each.  
Press them in each corner on the lip of the shroud.  Voila!  Done!  I have done 
this on my two cars and it stops the hood shake.

Dear List:

 

My BJ8 engine was removed and machined last spring. It has been reassembled and 
painted since then and waiting installation. Now I come to the other tasks on 
my wish list before installation. 

 

The hood has always shaken rather than remain stable. How do I remove the 
hinges and replace the anti-rattle washers. Looking under the dash, it seems 
they are incased in a metal shroud or covering with no way to get at the hinge 
bolt assembly.

 

Regards,

 

Bob Begani
