Folks - I will need some questions answered on this MGB engine rebuild - about half way - so who has the experience to help? Thanks inadvance!
 
Ask away! There are a few folks here who have done rebuilds, we're all happy to help.
 
Thanks - I have had this 1960 MGA with a 1963 MGB engine since college - 45 years ago - rebuilding frame-up - about 85% complete - 5 years - but retired now & working on it most days - getting close - body work still sucks! LOL!
 
Yup! STILL. Found this the other day, brother workin' on his MGA, my first MGB Shot sometime mid-1972. There's my Elan behind the B in the garage. Taillight barely visible.

The best piece of advice I can give is to be sure you have a shop manual, and read it carefully. These engines aren't difficult to rebuild, but you do have to do it right.
