It is a common mistake to say the MG engine is derived from the Healey
engine.
NOT SO! It was an Australian 6 that was sent out to be reworked and
lightened. As usual with the British car industry they screwed up and
produced a much heavier engine.
I agree that the transmission is the same, but uses a larger case. Manuals
are available from the suppliers, and both Moss and VB have some parts for
the car.
If completely lost try the MGC guru Mark Miller at big6mark@aol.com. He also
has a Healey.

And I love all three!
