Diesel Spitfires? Must have missed that while I was chasing cats off my
GT. But seriously, I was helping a friend with his Pipe pulling machine
(for irrigation systems). He had just spent $300 for a new water pump and
needed help putting it in. The pump looked suspiciously familiar. When he
pulled the shroud off the machine, there sat an 1800 cc diesel powered MG
motor. The diferences were a cross flow head, fuel injection, and an oil
cooler that exited the block through the preesure relief valve hole. He
was really pissed about the price of a water pump from Vicky Brit.
Oh, a passing note about Vicky Brit. When you have the occasion to
call, ask what goodies they have in the "backroom"-blems and returns at
very low prices.
