Why? The rear axle is the same as the MGB, just with a different ratio. The propeller shaft is slightly beefed up to handle the torque, is all. -- Max Heim '66 MGB GHN3L76149 If you're near Mountain

I really don' t know myself, but I would check this out before believing it. Thinking it through, while both are heavier than the B roadster, the difference between the two is that the extra weight o

I just replaced the very dim bulb in my tach with a new replacement, and the output was about 300% better. It makes the other instruments look dim, now. I suggest trying a new batch of original-style

What exactly is wrong with the radiator? If it is the chronic problem of a leak in the front of the top tank opposite the filler tube, there is a solution. -- Max Heim '66 MGB GHN3L76149 If you're ne

No, the stroke is measured from the total up-and-down movement of the piston during one revolution of the crank. You can't tell anything about the stroke from a loose piston. At any rate, assume it h

I have often pondered this issue myself, but haven't been able to get past the problem that it would block the high beam switch. Not that that is insoluable, just more trouble than I was willing to d

Clutch slave and flex hose are very accessible from under the car. Since the beeding process is far less involved than with the brake system, I concur that you might as well try one component at a ti

That's right. I just didn't want to get into extending the wiring harness, which has no slack at that point -- a remarkable number of wires go through the hi-beam switch. My legs are actually long en

Sounds like a decent find. Congrats. That would be a good start. It could also leak around the seal just because the trunklid alignment is not very good. But try that first. What do you mean the clut
