I was thinking the same thing. But it does run from one side of the engine compartment to the other, so there is all kinds of stuff in the way. Easier said than done, certainly. -- Max Heim '66 MGB G

Hmm, I think you need Laurie to chime in. I seem to recall a note in the Moss catalog to the effect that any head will work, with one exception. It may have had to do with the water choke, which may

Are you talking about the harmonic balancer? The rubber is an integral part. If it is in bad shape you should consider replacing it. I see no reason why you couldn't use it in the clutch system (in f

What makes you think that? Warping the rear drums is pretty unusual. In fact, I have never heard of it happening. Those are pretty hefty chunks of iron. If you are replacing the drums for whatever re

Sorry, I wasn't commmenting on your post. AFAIK your approximation is more or less correct. Although I always thought of those tires as closer to a 78 aspect ratio. -- Max Heim '66 MGB GHN3L76149 If

Well, they made more B's in total, but as a larger, more expensive vehicle to begin with, all other things being equal, they should still be worth more. Maybe it's just that Midget sellers are more i

Yeah, 165R14 and 175R14 are nearly extinct in the wild. I found Vredestein Sprint 175R14s recently through the local British car specialist. 175R-14s have a tall, vintage look that works well with CB
