Marc:

NOS is a really viable way of getting short bursts of horsepower from a
well designed engine that has a wide rev band.  Unfortunately the long
stroke, siamese port MGB motor doesn't really fit that description.  

Mixture distribution is a real sore point for the B, and increasing the
explosive nature of a poorly distributed mixture is going to cause some
nasty loading of the bottom end.  It would be interesting to see what
would happen, but I don't think the results would be very positive.

Kelvin.

I was laughing about stupid car stuff with a friend yesterday, when he
jokingly suggested putting NOS on the MGB.

Now, I have NO intention of doing so, but curious if anyone BTDT?
