BSW - used to attache the adjusting link to the generator (this was not 
a MG thing, but rather a Lucas thing and probably 99.9% of those BSW 
bolts have been replaced with an American National Course.  Also used in 
the SU carburetors to hold the vacuum bell in place and for adjusting 
screws.

BSC - used in the windshield pivoting arrangement.

BA - all the smaller machine type screws.  All the electrical grub 
screws are BA2 or BA4.  Also the power terminal and ground screw for the 
SU fuel pumps are 2BA (later pumps have a 4BA ground screw).

There are also BSP (straight thread) used for fuel and oil fittings.

Finally for the comment that the real indignation is metric fasteners 
used in Fords and Chevrolets - America has been on the metric standard  
for many, many years (on a voluntary basis - plus most of those cars are 
probably being built off shore).

Cheers,
Dave
