Guys, the differences in the deluxe/twin cam and the 1600/1622 are all in t=
he brakes (other than the motor in the twinkie). Deluxe/twinkie have dunlop=
disks on all four corners and have a different master cyl. 1600/1622 have =
Lockheed disks up front and drums in the rear. The "deluxe" was born when M=
G discontinued the twin cam and still had a number of twin cam chassis left=
over. They made no note at the time of which cars received the twin cam ch=
assis'.=20
The Moss catalog has a section in the back specifically for the twin cam an=
d deluxe which includes the braking system. Refer to that section to see wh=
at parts are different. I have always had slop in the spacer inside of the =
hub until the nut is tightened on my MKII. If your spindle has too much wea=
r that the inner bearing race spins on it, you may be able to repair it wit=
h a speedy sleeve.=20

Yep. From what I=E2=80=99ve learned here, one of the big differences betwee=
n a 1600 and 1622 MkI and MkII v. the deluxe and twin cam, is the brakes. U=
p front, the deluxe and twin cam have the Dunlop braking which do require t=
he shims. It isn=E2=80=99t shown in the picture you quoted, but below in th=
e listing, there are shims listed for the deluxe and twin cam.=20

Argh! Here's the intended page:=20
http://www.mossmotors.com/Shop/ViewProducts.aspx?PlateIndexID=3D29224=20
I looked more carefully. There is a different spacer, outer bearing & the s=
hims for the Mk II DeLuxe & Twin Cam.=20
Trying to find the right MGA is a PITA. It looks like the Mk.II DeLuxe had =
a 1622cc engine but it's still located as a MGA 1600 in most of the manuals=
. I wish Barney would check in.=20
