Description

Finished in a deep metallic British racing Green very well presented and Powered by a Triumph Stag V8 engine mated to a non overdrive Stag gearbox. Fitted with Sebring style body panels and multi spoke knock off wire wheels. Previously documented in a 2017 issue of MG Enthusiast magazine. Improved braking and modified exhaust system giving a great sound Fitted with power steering this extensively modified MG B GT with a Stag V8 engine configuration has undergone significant changes to enhance both its braking performance and horsepower. Previously documented in a 2017 issue of MG Enthusiast magazine, the car's modifications include various mechanical and cosmetic upgrades.To improve braking performance, a remote Girling type servo was installed on the nearside of the bulkhead. Additionally, the car now features a modified exhaust system, transitioning from a parallel arrangement to a single outlet. The braking system itself is a combination of components from Ford, BMC, and Girling delivering well-weighted and reliable stopping power. In terms of horsepower, the car has undergone several alterations. The HT coil was re positioned horizontally behind the carburettors, and a high final drive ratio was adopted from a 3.0 litre Capri (13.09:1) and the Stag V8 (3.7:1). The engine bay conversion involved cutting out the center section and bonding the Stag engine to the MG B, necessitating new engine and gearbox mountings, as well as brackets for the power steering pump and alternator.The car's exterior received attention as well. A headlamp conversion was carried out and Sebring style body panels were added, which required fitting wheel arch panels and a modified bonnet. The MG B GT Stag boasts a non-overdrive Stag gearbox with a shortened gear stick for precise shifting. The driving experience is characterized by the unique combination of the 3.0 litre Capri final drive and the Stag V8 engine. While the Stag's V8 is slightly longer and heavier than the all-alloy Rover counterpart, it potentially offers satisfying performance with ample low down torque and good acceleration in the higher gears and is fitted with power steering.The restoration and modification process lasted approximately three months and involved replacing the Stag engine's bottom end with new bearings, upgraded timing chains, and lapping the valves with new springs. Genuine MG and Triumph parts were sourced to ensure ease of maintenance. The result of these comprehensive modifications are a fantastic looking and sounding MG B GT.
