Nope. Not unless you change the engine rear plate and the flywheel... and the tranny. The starter is specific to the transmission (3-synchro or 4-synchro), not to the engine (3-main vs. 5-main). BTW,

I wouldn't be unduly concerned about 3-year-old tires coming apart, even under spirited driving, so long as you maintain proper pressure. Personally, I'd be a little loath to blow off the first 20,00

I think it's a Borg-Warner unit. You might be able to find one -- more people take them out than put them in, I imagine. There may be some additional issues that make it more difficult than just a st

Custom Alignment in Mountain View can do it. Though I'm a little loathe to recommend them since they sneered at aligning my MG. They did balance the new tires. on 3/11/04 11:25 AM, Philip McConnell a

The inner seal is the most likely culprit, so I think you will have to bite the bullet. Maybe you can find a local MG Lister who can loan you the socket. Heck, I will mail you mine if you promise to

Yeah, precisely. With the tilt front end on the Bugeye, it was perfectly accessible -- but with the alligator bonnet on the Spridget, which only seems to open about 20 degrees, it's a tough nut. Alon

You can buy pretty much this exact setup. It's intended for race cars, and it's usually located on the back bumper. It still wouldn't necessarily prevent people from hooking it up the wrong way, and
