When I bought my 71BGT, it seemed to run well but it got about 90 miles to a quart of oil. Compression was a consistent 90 psi on all four cylinders, warm, with or without adding oil. The only time I

My seatbelts or lack of them is my main holdup now in my 72B restoration. As mentioned earlier, the replacement of the sills left me minus the mounting points for one section of each seatbelt. That w

With the positive ground, you just have to keep in mind that everything is reversed. So if you have converted to negative ground, proceed as normal. With positive ground, to most modern appliances, t

I'll reply to the list because, ironically, my 72B had symptoms just like this right after its first drive in several years - it's initial drive after major restoration work. So I figured since the f

On the MGB (and I suspect on other MGs), the heat shield goes first and then the spacers. Its possible to put the spacers on first and then the heat shield - but if you do, you will see why the space

The dashboard conversion, using a 72 dash in a 71, is just a straight bolt on. But there are differences. The oil pressure gauge is electrical on the 71 but on the 72, it is a manual (connected with

Thanks for the reply. However, Blake has shown me that I made an error in that the trim rings are likely stainless steel. That would be logical since Moss sells these trim rings new for about $15 eac
