My brother and I can back up Keith here. Mike has a set of 15x6" minilites and 195/60 yokohama 509s. They are pretty darn sticky tires for the money. Dry grip was also found to be excellent, although

Well, I finally had time to check out my free rotation in the crank pulley. The darn bolt was loose. I even put that darn impact wrench on and tightened the H*LL out of that thing. I'll be heading ho

Can't say that I have the Burgess book. I think a quality rebuild is about all you can do to help the MGB, that is, without major dollar allocation. I want to learn general theory that is fundamental

Matt, I wouldn't use this stuff on the engine's interior bolts and studs. The only thing you need inside your engine is assembly lube, cam lube (for new cams), and gasket sealers. There are really no

I might be mistaken, but I have replaced the door glass seals on two MGBs (the '70 and the '78), and in neither case did I need to remove the window. I simply rolled the window down and got my cordle

Sorry to hear of your misfortunate accident. Try to obtain some windshield sealer. I would think it would do a decent job of sealing the hole, and not cause rusting, as a silicone sealant would. If i
