Maybe in Florida.
Any SU HS4 or HIF setup from an MGB will work on any other MGB. HS4
would be 'correct' for a 68.
Ebay is a pretty good source. Be care and ask questions of the seller.
Don't believe that anything you get off Ebay will be in good working
order or properly rebuilt. A rebuild kit (including throttle shafts) is
about $100.

Probably not needed. But there's a lot of debate on this.
Some will say that after a period of time, the valve seats have
leached in enough lead to 'harden' themselves (for lack of a better turn).
Others will say the your engine will be ruined without it.
