Peak torque occurs at 3000 rpm which fair enough is only 54mph in 4th and 66
in OD 4th. But the MGB has a very flat torque curve from 2000 rpm to
4500rpm, only varying by about 8ft lb. 80mph is 3600 rpm in OD 4th and only
2 ft lb lower than peak torque. No way is mine struggling at 80, it will go
over 100.
