What a great idea, just like Leyland did with the MGB, oh wait a minute 
the factory didn't do that, they used the cast iron 6 lump instead cause 
they had more of those around . Oh well at least a lot of MGB owners had 
a better idea .  Good idea anyhow , and that way I could retain that 
legendary British unreliability .
