Good question Bill. I havn't had a chance to try that. Maybe over the
weekend.

	Hi Kelvin

	Is it possible to reverse the top so the throttle assembly, the
highest point is right at the rear?

	Just curious...

	Bill

	James.

	I'm no expert, but I do have one of these sitting in my shop
still
	attached to a core 4.6 motor.

	The throttle assembly, the highest point is right at the front
which
	makes it a poor choice for the MGB. I don't think that you could
make it
	fit without a pretty big bonnet bulge.

	The long tracts were designed primarily for torque in the
original
	Range/Land Rover application, so again it's not the best setup
for an
	MGB where you will be more interested in higher revs.


	I am going to see if this will fit under the bonnet of a Rover
SD1, as
	it may be the perfect ticket for that application.


	>From what I understand, which usually isn't much. The larger
injectors
	can be installed in the hot wire manifold for a usable increase
in
	power, so the injectors themselves could be handy if the price
is right.
