Do the aluminium cross-flow heads for MGBs live-up to any of their claims? Are they an upgrade, or an expensive placebo? Also, does a 2L engine really do much more than using the +060" pistons for 1

Grassroot's Motorsports had an article on Mike Pierce's MG in the May 2002 issue. With twin weber DCOE 45's and a cam, headers and such, he's getting 162 HP. It's a 1970 'B. He had baselined it with

Yes, it is interesting, and I really like the look at the engine in the Magnette.... Is that actually yours, or is that your target, Kelvin? == Dan The Garden State (What Exit?) '76 MGB Tourer (Drive
