In the short time since sending this I've had a couple responses asking
where we are located. Guess I should have included that in my first email,
sorry. We are located in Panama City Beach, FL. If anyone is interested in
taking part please let me know as soon as possible because room is limited,
I only have a one car garage.

I have no idea where you guys are, but on the chance you are in the
Baltimore area, could you let me know.

Subject: Engine Rebuilds
At our last club meeting a couple of the guys mentioned that they needed to
do some engine work because of low compression or excessive oil leakage. My
loving wife readily volunteered me and our garage for an engine rebuild
session. Of course the others jumped on the idea, so it looks like right
after the New Year we are going to be rebuilding 3 MGB engines in my garage.
I've done 3 MG engines, as well as a few others, with pretty good success.
I'm going to talk to a local machine shop to see if we can get some kind of
club/quantity discount for the required machine work. I plan to have the
heads done completely, checked for cracks, surfaced (if needed) and valve
job. We will also have the blocks cleaned, surfaced (if needed) and new cam
shaft bearings installed.
I intend to replace the front transmission seals, but any other advise of
things we should do while we have the engines out would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Ken
