Thanks Chris, I just wish the TRF catalog had a more complete description of the actual fasteners. I didn't know about the brittleness of SS, so thanks for that info! First, I highly recommend that e

As always, it depends. If the rest of your engine seals well, then the PCV valve probably doesn't matter much, except possibly as a flame trap. If the rest of your engine doesn't seal well (like, thr

The emissions control systems varied a lot over the years - check your workshop manual to see if the car actually *wants* a PCV valve. I know that later MGs were plumbed with a gulp valve and no PCV,

Sure it's possible. But your friend's Metro probably has a different cam and lower-than-normal compression to make up for the turbo. Not to mention a special exhaust manifold for the turbo. How much

Lots of good stuff about wire wheels; I won't repeat it. I'll only chime in about chrome. Chroming steel causes something called hydrogen embrittlement. I'll spare you the details, but the upshot is

Given that you're running a Weber, I'd bet that the problem is simply that the float bowl is boiling/leaking/evaporating out. Next time you expect to have this problem (that is, after it's been sitti

I think you may have some of that wrong - in the US, at least, if you ordered O/D you got the 3.89 rear end. Many of the internal bits of the GT6+ gearbox are interchangeable with the later Spit 1500
