I put a 60hp in my '52 MGTD a few years ago, with a Mustang t-5 and 3.9 gears in the rear. Goes quite well. Marvin, ct

Re: heart attack at paint store--what is a reasonably priced paint

Painted my roadster with some left-over black Dupont Centari. A very forgiving paint for an amature, but had to go to R.I. for hardener. Marvin,ct

Re: V8-60 water pumps

John, from what I've learned, the early tapered pumps only use the small rubber bands and the later type only use the gaskets . You can't use both. Good luck, Marvin,ct
