[Mgs] gold sealed engine

I had one of the split weber manifolds for an MGB back about 1993 that I
ordered from Moss Europe. It looked like it was a good way of improving
idle, part throttle and acceleration pump reaction.

Then the new updated cross flow heads came out and I flogged the
manifold to someone at the Pasadena swap meet in Southern California.

Who knows, maybe that was the setup you saw.
