[Mgs] mgb connecting rods

[Charley & Peggy Robinson]

This is a good question.  When I built the engine in my B, I used HC 
pistons and the diagonal split rods in a 18V block, with the '67 stock 
cam profile.  If I was putting together a hot street engine, I'd check 
the weight of the two kinds of rods and go with the lighter ones.
