Can't speak for the US but in the UK at least GTX is sold in a number of formulations - including one for modern injection engines and one for older or 'conventional' engines. The crucial point to remember is that unlike modern cars the MGB is not that sensitive to oil in either engine or gearbox, although I personally wouldn't use a modern very low viscosity synthetic in either, these *are* intended for modern engines. There are synthetics for 'older' engines (Castrol make one under the GTX label!) but at the price I just don't see the value.
