    Thanks! Took me a few years, but it's fantastic and runs so well now (and pulls like a train). Next 5MGE is already built and going in my MGB.

    I have an mk2 supra with one of these stock. Very cool to see them used in something else. They are getting rarer and rarer to see.

    I have three of them. One of the best built motors of all time, IMO. I've finally got it running and driving very well.

    I had Delta do two sets of cams for me. They do a good job. I decided not to go turbo, because I don't really have the engine space for it, and the clutch is not that big on these motors.

    I just went with the factory ground cams. They work just fine.
