- Hello all, I'm new into triumphs, old into Toyotas, and have a few ideas to float to the powers that be for analysis and thought. I just bought a 79 Spitfire 1500 from Southern Ca.... Perfect body, n

- Scott, there's a fantastic website about the conversion of the MG AH "Spriget" to Toyo 4T or 4A power. I think that a spit would be WAY easier. Check out: http://www.team.net/www/mg/tech/midget/engsw

- Scott, I can't give you any pointers, but I for one would be most interested in following up on your progress, as I am considering something along those lines for my MGBGT. Please keep the list up to

- Given your history I would've thought that you would have gone at least the Rover V8 route on that one, especially as it's such a common swap in the UK.... you're not goin' soft on us now? Christoph
