V8 swap into an MGB GT tearing it apart and pulling fenders off.

[@bigilworth]

I hope you finish this build! Very interested. When I retire from the Army, I'm looking to do unique swaps into old MG, Fiat, and Alfa cars. They're cheap and fun to mess with. Love this channel

Did finish the car. It was very fast

@@garagedays971 Any videos coming out of the V8 dropped in there?

[@marknelson5929]

It always helps to have the manual on the car, which would have told you every step to remove the front fender and anything else you need to know. All the best.

I like the bed-liner idea on the floor boards. I think I’ll do that also!

[@craigmonteforte1478]

i think those bolts. that held something were often used to hold Wire management clips / holders for the Harness in the engine Compartment those were very often “bunked “ up with paint and road debri that got Solashed into the area or even sloppily applied at the factory at least that’s what 2 of my MGB Cars had i actually used to go through Coutches and i often pulled the Engine and Transmission as a unit to replace the Clutch parts when i had the Engine Compartments empty i liked to physically detail the entire Compartment and i would temporarily remove those clips to wash and Wax that area

They made v8s as such buick derived

i had one hell of a time taking doors off a 79 MGB Roadster because of the # 3 Phillips head Machine Screws in the Hinges ? i tried everything i had in my Box and had no luck i ran to a local Ace Hardware store and they had a Cmfort Grip ScrewDriver that had a Shank that had a section you could use a Open End Wrench on i put a “Cheater “ on a older Craftsman Combination Wrench and with the help of a Buddy and some Propane heat we got them to break free yeah there was some bad Language i thought about drilling them out but then i’d be stuck putting it back together after reskinning and Painting the Doors ?

This car has been a challenge.

MGBs don't have any Phillips screws. All the cross-slots are Pozidrive... PZ1 PZ2 and PZ3 bits are available at just about any hardware store. In a pinch, you can grind a bit of the tip off of a Phillips but it doesn't grip as well as the real-deal.
