Had a great time at the meet only wish I could have spent more time getting to know everyone better and learning more about MGV8's. Have already made a few changes to my car based on what I learned. Thanks everyone.
Kurt Schley's 1974 MGB, Olds 215, Dual Rochester 2brl carbs on Offenhouser manifold,
Borg Warner T56 six speed transmission with bellhousing
Front to back T5, Rover 5 speed, T56
Jim Stuart's 1974 BGT, 4.2L Rover w/ Vintage Air A/C. Jim gave a nice tech session on what it takes to get A/C in a MG.
Larry Hoy's 1969 MGB roadster, 1961 Buick Skylark 215, Carter 400 cfm 4 bbl, "Ted Shumacher" Rover V8 headers, 1992 Borg Warner World Class T-5 (.63 fifth gear), Stock MG rear end
A lot of sweat equity. Larry just completed this conversion on Wednesday the 6th and left for Cleveland on Thursday at 2:00a.m. He arrived in Cleveland, after 1500 miles of driving (and an occasional "rest stop" nap), at about 9:30a.m. on Friday. Truly a detected MGV8er.
