Fun Progect!
I have read that a Chevey V-6 works well, just REALLY heavy compared to the 3.5-218. There was a car in Massachusetts 15 years ago? , that had a 350 with a chopped rear end. Thing was insane, so I am told. You can get quite alot out of the 4 cylinder if you bore it out. Read the Book on Power -Tuning the B series engine. It is a great read with alot of tuning recipies! |

Re: V-8 Power?
This is the first time on any kind of forum..so be gentle...I've got a 1977 MGB convertible..what I'd like to know after reading of the pros and cons of the V-8. Straight 6 and the 4..(which by the way was excellent reading) what would be the optimum modifications to my '77 (money is only a little problem!)to make it smoke and handle well without a complete machine shop and an MIT engineer to figure out...
