Others interested in fuel injection for the MGB might be interested in an 
article in the May - June 1998 OCTAGON newsletter of the AMGBA.
(http://www.mgcars.org.uk/amgba)

Werner Haussmann spent lots of time doing research about FI vendors,
FI reqirements in technical books, and on FI discussion groups.

He came up with a fuel injection system for MGB from standard junkyard 
parts.

Re: the above $2200 retrofit fuel injection system for TR6 from Total 
Advance. For this you get:

       new intake manifold 
       an Electronic Control Unit & appropriate sensors
       new engine wiring harness 
       new Fuel lines/Fuel pump/Filter/Mounting hardware 
       parts for throttle cable conversion
       new Hi Performance Air Filter 
       Installation Instructions with Tech Support 

The Haussmann do-it-yourself version involves:
 - Craft an adapter plate to fit a Ford Tempo throttle body onto a late 
(Zenyth) MGB intake manifold
- find a Bosch L-Jetronic air flow meter and computer from a car such as 
a 
BMW or Renault Fuego
- Do your own wiring harness revision based upon the wiring diagram of 
the 
donor car
- plumb in a new high pressure fuel pump and an additional (return) fuel 
line.

He describes the actual installation as easy.
