I suppose that's one way of looking at it. Good luck finding that air-cooled MGB engine, though... Seriously, all you would have to do is rig a bypass, using rigid line (given your abhorrence of hose

You would just need to run it off an "always hot" power source, rather than a switched one. This might be as simple as switching a wire at the fuse box. However, your fuel pump shouldn't run more tha

Anti-sieze compound is a silver-colored lubricant. Some people (including myself) seal the nipple ends inside of the hub with silicone sealer, to keep the grease from leaking out. I just read an arti

I believe it is a matte anodized finish, not paint. There are services that can re-anodize aluminum parts. An alternative might be bead-blasting, then clearcoating. Or you could polish the entire thi

That's a darn good question. It looks like there are two choices: 1. Seal the hub, being sure to clean the splines and renew the grease regularly to avoid trapped moisure; 2. Wash the wheels frequent

I would think it was relatively easy. It's light, really narrow, and the stock suspension has a lot of roll. Then the RB models add a higher roll center to the mix. I mean, it's not like an SUV, but
