Dave@Moon Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Does anyone know of a commercial outlet that stocks a rebuilt long block for a late MGB? I need to order one. I was originally going to use The Roadster Factory, but they've discontinued their rebuild service.:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter P Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Does it have to be a rebuilt? Or are you interested in a used engine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave@Moon Posted February 17, 2015 Author Share Posted February 17, 2015 I'm afraid it does have to be a rebuilt motor, this is a car being thoroughly restored. If I can't find one for them then a used engine might be sent to a rebuilder. The one in the car turned out to have a cracked block that is probably beyond repair. Also I would have thought that such a recent motor wouldn't be that hard to find, but obviously I was wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Restorer32 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Wow! You found an MGB that wasn't rusted beyond restoration? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlLaFong Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Give Russ Thompson a call at Thompson British Car. he is in Northridge, CA and has been working on British cars for 40 years. He's a good guy, very knowledgeable and very honest. I know he's all the way across the country, but shipping an engine shouldn't be horribly expensive. 818-256-0693 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
