Paul,

I have suspected for a while that early MGBs are far less prone to
overheating than later MGBs. I had a '74 MGB in Texas and it never
showed any overheating problems.  Instead, when I moved and took the
car back to the UK, it never heated up in winter unless I blocked off
part of the radiator and oll cooler.
