The factory offered rebuilt components on the replacement/aftermarket. These were later sold under the Unipart banner. My understanding is as follows (please enlighten me if I get anything wrong): Go

AFAIK, I think a Gold Seal engine originally meant a complete engine supplied by MG as a spare part (and painted gold, not red). It also seems to be used these days by some engine rebuilders to refer

Yeah, thankfully my car isn't nicely painted, and the oil leaking from the rocker cover has pretty much obliterated the gold color, anyway... -- Max Heim '66 MGB GHN3L76149 If you're near Mountain Vi

It's 'Gold Seal', and is a factory reconditioned replacement engine, painted gold instead of red or black. My understanding is this was a complete engine that had been, for whatever reason, stripped,

What is odd is that the used engine which I put into my MGB was alleged to be a Gold Seal engine; it was painted gold, and it had a BHM number plate, but the number is not on the list on this page, o

You will see from Clausager that BHM prefixes were only used on replacements for rubber bumper MGB engines, way after the 18GB. They were also used for other applications like Marina and Sherpa van t

I'd be very suspicious of this, apart from the ratty tapping of orifices (orifii?) the gold colour is very wrong compared to my engine. This engine has been assembled, taped and sprayed and I'm prett

Color me confused. If it did not have a crossflow head, how do you mount dual DCOEs on a 5 port head? Hell I used to sell Webers, and I have no clue. Rick ____________________________________________

Well, you could "split" each carb, so that you only used one throat from each. Don't laugh -- they actually do this on some race minis, so that each inlet manifold branch is straight, not curved. Pic

There was a setup where you would run 2 DCOE's, one throat each going into the intake manifold and into the siamesed ports. This gave a straight shot for air/fuel to go into the cylinder head, and so
