^^ Are you saying that if executed properly, you won't mind sticking in a 13B in the porch bench?

I'm saying if someone does it properly (Bezman comes to mind), I wouldn't turn up my nose at it............I personally never liked the wet farty sound of a rotay..........I seriously considering dropping the Vauxhall 2.3 SOHC into the MG..........should make for one quick-accelerating beast with the close ratio 4-speed box...........would have to upgrade the suspension to V8 spec tho, because that iron block is HEAVY
Pretty sure it would be one of the weirdest MGB douglas around
