The early 3-main MGB gearbox with MGA tailcase and shifter extension fits the same as the A box (well, at least the same as a 15GD 1500 to 1600 Mk2 - the earlier 1500 needs the later rear engine pla

I have a set of 4 14" aftermarket aluminum slot-type wheels for MGB available for sale. A pile of lug nuts come with them but I don't have any centercaps. They have been holding up my '64 parts car

None of my MGAs (numerous ones over the years, from '57s to '62s) have ever had this particular slave cylinder, but it is depicted in the 1500 Parts Manual. However, it was only fitted to the early

'Needed' may be too strong a word, but I could use a CR laygear and an input shaft/gear. The laygear should be stamped 1H3298 (for MGA; & '62-'66 MGB too?; but '67 MGB is OK too!!) with 25 teeth on t

Right on, Bill. As I mentioned recently on the Twin-Cam/Deluxe list, a Twin-Cam with close-ratio gears and a 4.55 will blast past a good early TR6 in a 1/4 mile drag. I won't say what it would do to
