What I meant was, where are the flaps? Does that line represent a cut, or a seam, or an opening sealed with snaps or zippers? On the currently available tonneau covers, the diagonal zipper runs the o

I didn't say it was a fit problem, I was merely pointing out that it did not match either the stock MGB size, the "heavy duty" MGB size, or the MGC size, which led me to doubt that they were intended

Um, it's the clutch diaphragm spring that returns the clutch, not the suction in the slave cylinder. If the clutch arm doesn't return, and you can move it with your hand, I would say you have an inte

I can confirm that when I converted my 66 B to an alternator, the brackets didn't seem to align the pulley correctly. It took some fiddling, and I'm still not convinced it's perfect. So that could be

Hmm, looking at cars on the street I would say the opposite is generally true. Disk brakes generate more dust, and that dust is more likely to wind up on the wheels. Cars with 4-wheel disk brakes I s
