Just finished my taxes and for the first time in years I get money back, not 
much but I don't have to cut a check!  Now if I can get the marginal rate 
under 20% I will be in hog heaven.

Back on topic I suggest that you consider a big brake upgrade along with an 
MGB booster.  I got a ride in Daniel's sprite that had this conversion and 
that thing stops in a heartbeat.  Heck, you might not be the fastest on the 
road but you will be able to brake into a curve much later than most things 
on the road.  Seriously his car could really stop.  It is really an 
impressive swap.  His book covers the conversion more completely.  JM2C.

PS.  I don't have that conversion on my car, to lazy.
