Has any one used one or heard of one being used? Apparently they made after market heads for the 1800. I cant find much info. Really the only thing i could find was an old post on the bcf about a nissan forklift having a similar head. There was one for sale local and I kinda blew him off because i didn't know much about it.

It is the "E15" and "J15" series heads that fit on the MGA/MGB
The fork lift uses the J15 (and J13 too)
The heads fit but have less "breathing" than an MGB head until they are opened up

Yes, thats the only information I can find for it. I should call the guy who has it for sale. He claims that Nissan made a head for the B. I admit Im not the most internet savvy Paul, but you put me to shame on that one. :smile:
