- I have come across a Mazda MX-6 V6 engine. I will find out the year tomorrow but I believe it's a late 90's. Does anyone know if one of these has ever been fitted to an MGB? I believe it's the same e

- While I can't say that this has NEVER been done, I would think it would not be easy, considering it's a FWD drivetrain. You'd need to find a tranny that would fit. Most people do the GM V6 in one of

- You didn't state what year MGB. If you are looking to do an engine swap in your '69 be really careful. The steering rack location limits a lot of swaps, so plan on having to do some pretty drastic r
