This review is from: How to Power Tune MGB 4-Cylinder Engines (SpeedPro Series) (Paperback)

This book is a great read for anyone who owns and maintains an MGB. You don't need to be chasing every last horsepower to get a benefit from reading this. Plus, it covers gearbox, diff, brakes, suspension, fueling, and cooling. Recommended.
