Grassroot's Motorsports had an article on Mike Pierce's MG in the May 
2002 issue. With twin weber DCOE 45's and a cam, headers and such, he's
getting 162 HP. It's a 1970 'B. He had baselined it with just the header
at 82 HP.

That may be a bit extreme, but he claims it's very driveable on the street.

I don't know about the 2l.
