MGA Wanted: MGA 1500 or 1600 engine or block

I need a 1500 or 1600 engine for my 1959 MGA. (The block presently in my MG is a 3-bearing 1800 that I installed while in college in 1974.) I'd need to get it shipped to Jackson, MS. Any help locating one would be appreciated.
 
I bet you will miss the power...but probably can find someone with a 1500 who will trade it for your 1800.

Just some food for thought...good luck!

Try Pete McCarthy (in NJ) at 973-383-8859.
He does not have e-mail.
 
You should be able to get a block for about $80.00, the only problem is that shipping is about the same.

The best thing to do would be to find someone local.
