I had hardened seats put on my 71. Why didn't MG put these on as OE? Surely they knew the US was switching to no lead in 1971. Bob Donahue (Still stuck in the '50s) EMAIL - BOBMGT@AOL.COM 52 MGTD - u

Light driving with non-hardened seats should not cause a problem for many 1000s of miles, but if you drive your MG hard - as it should be! - and the valves will wear out quickly. Philip Raby Editor,
