Hi
I've been tracking down chassis dynos and tuning wizards here in Albuquerque.
Unfortunately, the best candidate to Really dial my MGB in doesn't have an
assortment of Weber parts. Does the oft-mentioned Charley Rockwell supply
the parts to try? Are there tuning kits available at reasonable prices or do
I get everything separately? I don't want to spend the money on obviously
inappropriate permutations - especially since I use dual 40 DCOEs.

I considered heading back to CA for an appointment with Rockwell
(timed to coincide with the Palo Alto meet) but decided than tuning
at sea level wouldn't be much good at the New Mexico altitudes. I live at
6K, Santa Fe = 7K, Los Alamos and Taos = 7.5K - and its obviously higher 
in the mountains where the fun roads are.

I would appreciate any tips on how to determine the best person/equipment
for the job. There's a reasonable amount of racing interest in town - this
is Unser country - but I haven't found any shops (with dynos) that are 
particularly experienced with British.
