heres both of my babys

Nice cars! I'm familiar with both of them. THe Cougar looks great. Have you had it dynoed with the SVT UIM and LIM?


As for the MGA, there is a site that deals with an MGA bottom end swap. I am not sure if yours is a twin-cam. If it is, the only way to keep the stock appearance and get more output is by adding the greater displacement of an MGB 3 main bottom end. with some minimal head work, the MGA head will fit on the MGB block. I am not sure if it is the same case with the MGB 5 main engine. Then you can rebuild the MGB blcok to about 1900cc. With single cams you'd be looking around 90 crank HP. With twin-cams, probably closer to 110 or 115. But I am speculating.

I'll try and find that link for you when I get home.

Have fun! And email me any time. I love talking about these old cars. I am looking to do a Ford Zetec conversion in my 79 MGB roadster....
