Coilover Suspensions?

I was wondering if anyone out there has had experience with coilover suspension conversions (front, rear, or both) on their MGBs. I have seen products from Hoyle Engineering (https://www.hoyle-engineering.co.uk/index.html) and Hawk Cars (https://www.hawkcars.co.uk/parts/mgbsusp.html). I think Hawk may provide the same assembly to MGOC

Thanks,

The Hoyle unit looks almost exactly like the Hawk setup.

Moss was offering a front Coilover kit, developed from the Ron Hopkinson setup, abnd they were offering it in their catalogs this fall, but I don't see it on their website or catalogs now, so I guess it's out of production again for the time being, the Hopkinson kit was nice as it required no modifications to the front subframe and was pretty reasonably priced (under $1k IIRC).
 
Here's a phto of my Hawke's setup...in photo it has Rover SD1 calipers but I'm getting ready to sell them & replace with lightweight Wilwood calipers
