Marine supply stores may still stock the stuff. Some 'high-performance' parts stores do also. But why are you seeking it? Our concerns about premature valve and seat wear have turned out to be great

Why do you think you need a lead additive? Real world experience seems to indicate that under normal street conditions these engines get by perfectly OK on unleaded fuel. IME the additives are (1) a

Max Heim SEZ - Not only unleaded, but the mechanic who rebuilt the 5-main high-compression MGB engine for my MGA told me that I can use regular-grade unleaded in all but the warmest weather! This sur

I think there must be a lot of factors. I know about 3 years ago I had a bad head gasket issue on my MGA (with a 3 main MGB motor), and took the head in to be checked/rebuilt as needed. It was a 1500

OK, I admit I was assuming that pretty much every B-series engine head out there had been rebuilt by now (more than once, probably), and thus had hardened seats. Rebuilding without doing the seats wo

Remember, that 98 octane figure is probably not using the R+M/2 method the US uses -- it's probably using the international method, and translates to about 90-92 US. I don't know what timing you're u

Max Heim SEZ - Good point about the octane. Even when I got the MGB (1977) the only place you could by 98 R+M/2 octane gas was at an airport. As far as the timing goes, I'm not using any timing now,

I lost a set of Dodge 360 heads to valve recession and those heads aren't plentiful any more. The head now on my B and the ones on the 360 now have hardened inserts in them. Otherwise I'd use an addi

Many on this side of the pond have converted to hardened valve seats. Does this modification along with stellite valves, eliminate valve recession completely? You never hear about valve recession on
