I found this line from Jim Patterson's '97 Street Rodder article disturbing.

<<There is also a cooling problem that develops if the heater connection at 
the rear of the intake is blocked off - It won't allow the right circulation 
to the thermostat. >>

Seems that an MGB heater control valve would do the same thing. Has any one 
experienced this situation? Maybe this is part of the overheating problems 
with an MG V8 conversion. Surely we don't have to drive around with the 
heater valve open in the summer.
