Sorry Scott, I still can't bring myself to purchase a Japanese cookie cutter 
clone that i might lose in a parking lot among all the others of the same model 
& colour.  I'm sure your Z is a nice car that is more dependable, better riding,
and faster than anything I have, but making sensable decisions about cars has 
never been one of my strong points.

Besides, according to my calculations, stock late MGB pushrods should be ariving
at the Roadster Factory about today.  And just maybe they might be sending me a 
full set sometime soon.  I also have a new STOCK cam and set of lifters on its 
way.  I'm giving up on trying to get this hotroded engine SMOGed.  It has 
already cost me more than a minor engine rebuild.  Since yours is the only offer
I got for the BGT, and its for something too sensable for me, I thought I would 
break down & pop a new cam, timing chain and rod bearings into the engine.  It 
already has a new valve job and newly refirbished SUs.  I just figure if I can't
get rid of it I'm stuck with it.

Oh well,

TeriAnn
