He also posted on his insta story

John Twist from University Motors, super quality human and THE MG guru in the United States. I think he had more subscribers at one time, but he is retired now and closed his shop, so he likely lost some. At one time he had call in Tuesdays when you could call him at the shop to ask questions. I talked to him once at on the phone and a couple of times in person at a local Brit car event he attended. Back I visited his Michigan shop with my dad when he was restoring a '69 B roadster and we drove up to pick up carbs that John had rebuilt.

[@mackenziepm]

Being British and super used to seeing the MG your whole life. I am enjoying watching this. You do realise this series will never end, as owning a classic British car is a lifetime commitment to things breaking.

[@urielRhernandez]

My brother has 3 Mg Midgets we're currently painting the engine bay in one of them. It's awesome you're fixing a Mg as well.

[@mannieghee1370]

Me too what state are you in ?

[@mkonji8522]

I respect you being so upfront about your mechanical abilities and not trying to make a front like they know everything like some other youtubers.

[@peterdering4922]

This week with cars, is a good channel to follow he just loves old British cars repairing, upgrading and restoring.

[@ludovicklauzon1889]

You should replace all the gasket as general maintenance. Love your vids 👌

[@cliptheelder3262]

The engines in those where usually brunswick green or gold if they where factory rebuilt units (common at the time) and a chromed or brushed rocker cover and other shiny bits would look the part. Keep up the good work

[@evanskull4975]

nice I had never heard of this car but now that I see you working on it I am already interested 👍

[@petermackay8551]

Clutch plate notorious for rusting to flywheel if laid up for any length of time. It'll come away easy when you remove cover plate. Put it back together and it'll work fine.

[@vwdubnut7437]

Well done pulling the engine on your own man. Especially it being your first!! I can see you're excited with this build. 👍🇬🇧

[@lawrencesargant1669]

Mine needs removing my gearbox is shot so going to cash in ….new clutch, add overdrive box and give engine a overhaul. Can’t wait thanks for the video hope all goes well well 👍🇬🇧

[@cr0wnnoize808]

DIY! Brave bro, get it done. You've motivated me to work on my projects. Thnx

[@WRMonger1]

Just a side note, a lot of Datsun and MG components are very similar if not the same. For instance, the SU carbs that you removed looked exactly like those on my 240Z. The slave cylinder for the clutch looked identical as well. Pretty sure that there’s some overlap between them.

[@reecewood155]

I'm super excited for this build.

[@firefnaf2218]

Btw whats goin on with the ls Datsun????????

[@fern7189]

Take advantage as well with the engine bay. Nice wire clean up and paint would compliment whatever color you decide to do the engine

[@joshuabell6476]

Those engines look great in BMC Maroon engine paint with the readily available Alluminium rocker cover (looks like the cam cover but isn't because it an OHV not an OHC engine)

[@removeableskull7446]

I just cleaned my project and a lil bit of gas will get most gunk off of everything really quick

[@upnorthviking823]

Last summer i removed plasti-sh*t from 3cars using fuel and the sun lolll

[@matthewgreen1443]

I'd paint the block British racing green and silver/chrome the cam covers and wire tuck the bay

[@tomedge1044]

replace the carbon thrust bearing for the operating the clutch when you replace the clutch, may be worth looking at the pressure plate as well

[@jaketolbert289]

Alot of work dude. You'll get it.

[@adamhead5598]

Excited to watch this video in a few hours after work😎👍🏻. Now I’ve watched it. Love it man. Keep it up and put out a video ASAP...lol

[@henningkock4436]

Dark green block paint and black valve covet is OG British style.

[@pain_inthe_bass]

You know there is a recall on the harbor freight jack stands

[@tydontdy3459]

He's working on getting some Quik Jacks

[@acoffeewithsatan]

You know an harbor freight tool is really a piece of crap when they have to do a recall on it

[@FabianPiperno]

I say paint the engine blue. Cyan, Cerulean or Cobalt blue will look amazing with the color of the car (if you’re keeping it the factory color that is). Then you can also tie in some blue accents here and there (like piping in the interior, or stitching in the door cards).

[@maxout6855]

What I think would been awesome is a 4age in the mg but whatever you do it will be awesome love your content

[@toxicprodigy5201]

i think the car would look cool if you done it black but re do the original lines/patent/livery in candy pink, same as the engine-bay, black motor with a candy pink gilmer setup, and a new stainless exhaust manifold and a few more little pink parts here and there, might sound basic but it would stand out.

[@indust_painter307]

I love the videos man! Great job! I'm into doing the same things! Leaning as you go. Keep up the great content! I'll keep on watching and giving that thumbs up 🤙on a side note on the engine color.. are you repainting the car? If not maybe go an orange and black?

[@VMPLAYSonYT]

Thanks for the quick glance of the wide body fenders man. You forgot a secret word, but anyways Congrats about the Quickjacks man..

[@LobbyDaLobster]

Paint engine the same colour as the car. ORANGE! Orange FTW!

[@elgallo5.366]

Love this mans videos

[@davidrussellwilks]

I'm not sure if I'm the guy or not; you mentioned me the other week in your clutch bleeding video. I made a video covering removing the engine and gearbox on an MGB last year: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pYjUi4SOZa2pirM . Let me know if I can help at all with any advice when you refit to the car, the gearbox mounts tend to be the hardest bit.

[@GARAGEIdiotS]

630th! Beat that! Also good job man!

[@timwegman5776]

I’m guessing 500 of them were the Bug right? Lol. just playing Preston.

[@Matthew_Plant]

Paint the block Kawasaki green or BUILT logo yellow. Red, silver and black is just a bit boring IMO 👍

[@yamilmelendez2667]

Love those big white flares in the back

[@AlvinBrinson]

Sockets should work fine... unless access is blocked. You have to be using Imperial measurement not metric potentially. UK was mix and match back then IIRC.

[@maniacasassin]

hey dude, was just wondering what’s going on with the fatsun build? i really enjoyed that one

[@vincentpion8584]

That engine block needs to be British Green !

[@t1bud42]

Dang I was really hoping for a full s2000 motor and drivetrain swap for this car!

[@justwheels5984]

Red would be a good colour for that type of engine

[@arush9079]

I think you should paint the motor and transmission bright GREEN especially if you were going to keep the car Orange. I think green and orange look awesome together.

[@phillipcombs5512]

Just a thought but instead of doing a V8 swap a V6 vortec motor would fit allot better and are a dime a dozen just a thought. Love the channel tho keep up the awesome work

[@bazilwreckerloughead]

I think one of the original engine MGB motor colors was dark red, I could be wrong .(that happens a lot) You said it'd be easier to take that engine out if you had a friend there? I'd really have a hard time...I have no friends! ;)

[@paulmeijer6163]

Looks great man

[@hillonwheels8838]

Go with British Racing Green on the engine and trans for it's heritage.

[@Chumley360]

VHT Burnt Copper, great color.

[@imtiazahmed2147]

if you swap it either do a MIATA motor 1.8 or even a beams motor but those or a lot too

[@MrJuly-ok5lr]

Red would be a good color for the engine.

[@henrickhooghoed5850]

do a paint matched engine!! it will look soooo clean.

[@davidgerrard8661]

I took mine out solo, pretty nerve wracking. It's heavy! I replaced with a v8 which is lighter than the 4 cylinder and t5 trans

[@BennisMaximus]

Top 4 engines that should go in this build (it was supposed to be a top 5 but I couldn't think of a fifth engine worthy): -RB25 -1JZ -K24 -4G63

[@SMD-si7fm]

$20 says those are the only engines that you know.

[@StaredownGames]

LSx. Murica.

[@BennisMaximus]

@@SMD-si7fm you're no fun :/

[@jackbevo5]

Black engine and colour match your rocker cover/oil pan with your exterior and wrap that exhaust bb

[@charlessuhr6910]

but forreal what happen to the FATSUN?

[@jonnyringo6338]

You should paint the engine BEAMS 3SGE Yellow

[@geoffersmaher]

Where were links to the mg vids/channel ??!!

[@willierule3744]

One of the last episode you were talking about how one of the carburetors is a main carburetor and the other ones just a backup or a secondary and that's not actually true the fact of it is is 1 carburetor feeds two cylinders and the other carburetor feed the other two cylinders and that's how they work together and they also have to be synchronized so you should look into that

[@urielRhernandez]

And they're expensive ass hell.

[@yamilmelendez2667]

Engine color just get some light color to make it shine nice unless you dont want to be doing an engine detail every week from dust and etc

[@michaeldramis2349]

love this channel

[@scottdawson6851]

You should do the block either red or British racing green with black head and metal finish valve cover am from the UK and have seen many of these mgbs with similar colours and it's the only colour if you ask this side of the pond Lmao 😂😂

[@timwegman5776]

Lmao I will put his name right here( ) and add a link to the description! So umm no name no description I guess you forgot. Haha and I really needed that link man.

[@toddster772008]

Paint it sapphire red bro.👍up too

[@bitzer8722]

Since the engine is out it’s a good time to do a turbo k24 swap

[@StaredownGames]

Homie needs CASH.

[@kotalarsen95531]

Where is the fatsun?

I have some oil coolers from an RX-8 would those be helpful? I don't need them

[@alexarcia9673]

Greetings From Panamá

[@upnorthviking823]

I would return that clutch.. Every pennie you spend on this engine takes you further away from making this car fast!! Scrap engine trans etc or sell it..get the money for a swap!

[@nicksilver3730]

Black- silver with bright noen green accent

[@hargusgarage1308]

Oldsmobile gold

[@paulh9815]

Would be cool to put a vr6 in it

[@darrylkenes7424]

I have NO mechanical abilities at all. I’m in the process of removing the engine from my 1966 B. I can’t figure out how to get the shifter out of the gearbox? I think I have everything disconnected. I really wish someone would do a step by step removal and install since I have to do it again.

[@FALCORTON]

Nice

[@darrenjacques8246]

the throw out bearing would be seized

[@removeableskull7446]

White or green for engine. So it’ll be easy to find future leaks

[@daurysd8402]

Orange for the engine paint

[@ptoughneighcoopernicus5042]

Paint the engine Gun metal grey or gloss dark red

[@JJmotorsport1]

Id paint the engine silver matey personally going well so far be good to see what i ends up looking like

[@lukas601]

Swap the engine for the one that is in the s2000 (k20 or k24 or something)

[@jimhardy5349]

Man the first engine I pulled had no clue used my kids swing set a did a lot of guessing...sadly no KZbin to help back then God I'm old..😀
