I have never seen "County" pistons, but I had a bad experience with a "County" exhaust valve in an MGA about 5 years ago. I bought new exhaust valves from British Parts Direct for my 1622 engine, ha

Did anyone else who subscribes to the mgs-digest get an incomplete digest on 8/18 (digest #1292)? I was disappointed because there were postings that appeared interesting from the contents (IE., the

Not to start a flame, but Morrison is only partly right. The heater motor you received is correct for MGBs from 1973 or so on up. The shorter motor was to allow clearance for the carburetter intake

It's very coincidental that this thread started now - I spent yesterday afternoon vulturizing a couple of late model Bs in the local Pull N Save junkyard with Corey Hogue (another long term MG nut an

I have had good luck with the Unisyn on all SUs, including little HS2s on Spridgets. If the float won't move, check to make sure that it is free to move in the plastic tube, it should fall freely thr

Item #1 - Nice description, but they didn't quote a price (probably hellishly expensive), and where do you put the battery, especially if you have a GT? The only thing I can think of is to buy an Op

That grey thing near the voltage stabilizer is one of your fuel pump inertial cutoffs. The lawyers (in their infinite wisdom) didn't like the idea of an electric fuel pump continuing to spew out gas

It's obvious that we have touched upon a very sensitive subject here - everyone has a different level of tolerance for "modification", or as the opponents of it say: "butchery". It's really a questio

Mea Culpa, I should have known it wasn't you, we usually agree on things like this! Sorry about that, maybe I'll let you drive the V-8 if we ever cross paths at a car show. Cheers, PK

I will admit that I owned a Miata for about 5 years here in Sacramento, California. I had air conditioning, and it was very cool and cozy with the hardtop on and the A/C blasting during our 100+ degr

I beg to differ on engine removal - it is MUCH easier than any suspension work I have ever done. One reason is that the engine and trans are usually coated with a uniform layer of oily grunge. This

You indeed have a Factory V-8 style dash, although it has been modified somewhat. The same style dash was used on the 1973-74 chrome bumper GT V-8s, the 1975-76 rubber bumper V-8s, and the 1975-76 4
