- Interesting information. My MGA seems faster than my MGB, but then again, it has an MGB engine in it. Maybe that makes its performance closer to the twin cam, but I am quite sure it won't do 113mph.

- I was half debating whether or not to comment on this, lest anybody notice that my MG isn't running =) I thought the reasons why the Midget wasn't included was that a) they didn't have steep enough

- I have just the opposit situation. My 1500 MGA with a weber is considerably slower off the line then my 77B. The B feels like a Corvette in comparison. ...Art

- I guess I had better chime in with my 2 cents worth here. Our mkII MGA carrys about 22lbs. of weight per horsepower while our good ol' '67 MGB-GT has to tote around 24lbs./hp. The MGA is decidedly q
