\nFrom Roger White:
\nI've had a positive experience with the Petronix kit on my '79 and also with conversion of the Stromberg carb to twin SUs
\nFrom Michael Turnbull:
\nI drive a 76 B that I bought in 1976. The first thing I did back then was take out the old Stromberg and replace it with twin SU's from an early 60's B. Last Spring, I had had enough of tempermental carbs and bought the duel port downdraft Weber from Brit-tek. Twas truly a wonderful move. I installed the carb with the assistance of a friend from the Porche club and was truly blest. Last fall I burnt my ignition, right down to the key pod. I replaced it with the recommended Ultimate system from Brit-Tek, including new wires and was very pleased although I had to put the car to bed for the winter right away so I have no long term results. I can say that I trust Brit-Tek as I have done a complete restoration of my B over the last three years and they came through like champs, and you can tell them I told you so.<\/p>\n

I talked to these guys a couple of years ago about their 5 Speed gearbox conversion for a 'B'
\nQuite impressive, and in my opinion a much better way to go compared with fitting a BMC overdrive gearbox of dubious origin.

\nMGA Oil Pressure Gauge Washers<\/strong>
\nWho would have guessed? To connect the oil pressure line to the oil pressure gauge, one needs a leather washer. I'm not making this up. Luckily, my daughter Laura who works with leather made me one. Problem solved.
\nThen, she made me about 20 more. So, if anyone is in need of a leather washer, I'm your man.
\nCheers,
\nStuart Langford
\nnote from Geoff Dix - the same washer also applies to the MGB!<\/p>\n

Quantum Mechanics in Connecticut:<\/strong>
\nA note from Paul Williams \u2013 January 2015
\nLast September I ordered a five-speed conversion for my MGA from Quantum Mechanics in Connecticut. The owner, John Esposito, took a 50-percent deposit and promised delivery in 4-6 weeks. Mr. Esposito sells rebuilt transmissions and five-speed kits for many British cars.
\nMy experience was that initially Mr. Esposito was pleasant and helpful, but after processing the deposit, he stopped answering calls and stopped responding to emails. Ultimately, after nearly three months, I got Visa to intervene and managed to get my deposit back. However, I now learn that numerous MG owners are having difficulty with Quantum Mechanics (there\u2019s a long thread on the MG Experience website at http:\/\/www.mgexp.com\/phorum\/read.php?2,2739745. So I\u2019m writing to let club members know that they should beware of Quantum Mechanics. I\u2019d recommend staying well clear of this company.

Replacement Wheel Studs For MGB For Racing Rear Wheel Conversion<\/strong>
\nfrom club member Wally Clemens<\/p>\n

http:\/\/www.speedshack.co.uk\/Wheelnuts.htm
\n'New for 2011' 50mm long (smidgen under 2\") 1\/2\" unf studs for the Chrysler Jeep, but indicated to be suitable for MGB.<\/p>\n

http:\/\/www.summitracing.com\/int\/parts\/msr-8255
\nWheel Studs, Press-In, 12mm x 1.5 x 2 1\/2 in., Right Hand Thread, .505 in. Knurl, Set of 10
\nThese can be pushed into the hubs; only thing is that they are metric threads, so metric lug bolts would have to be sourced.
\nProject: Installing an aftermarket set of American Racing Wheels on my 1972 MGB, but I need longer wheels studs because I am going to have to run a spacer in order for them to fit right. The rear studs now are 1.625 long with a .510 knurl, the fronts are 1.400 long with a .510 knurl. Threads are 1\/2-20.<\/p>\n

Wheels stud that fit perfectly in the holes in the MGB hubs & has an additional inch of threaded stud is at Summit Racing (1-800-230-3030)...they are part # ARP-100-7708...they come 5 to a set for $11.95.....they're for a late model GM car....so, enough to do an MGB with 4 left over is $47.80. <\/p>\n

Here's the catch: the studs are 12mm.....so you have to change your wheel lugs from what came with the Rostyle to a metric lug. That appears not to be a problem as an aftermarket wheel company here in town said they could match my setup...all I need to do is take one of my hubs with the studs pressed into it and one of my wheels to them & they'll provide the lugs.....remember, an MG is lug-centric.\"<\/p>\n

NOTE: In both cases an electrical spot weld was placed on the head of the lug stud just to be extra sure. It is claimed that chipping off the electrical spot weld enables the lug to be pressed out again.<\/p>\n

The two above lugs are very close to the .510 knurl required for our MGBs and therefore the suggestion on the Electrical spot weld. <\/p>\n

Summit Racing has lugs that offer the proper imperial thread but the MGB hub would have to be drilled out to accept the larger Knurl. West Carlton Motors has a machine shop which can drill and replace the larger knurl studs\/lugs.<\/p>\n

\nMGB Floor Pans<\/strong>
\nIn case anyone is rebuilding a B or Just needs to replace the floors. I just got this set. They are made in southern Ontario and are 10 thou over spec (thickness). They are also made from no rust metal so even if you left them outside they will not rust! They can also be primed and painted of course. If there are any members interested in this product tell them to give me a call. I can also get rockers in the same material. Cheers. Bob Corral 613-797-6179
