So I'm nearing completion of the 1800 swap in my mga.

I am using the H4 carbs from the MGA, its a 1500.

I've no idea what needles I have got, am I likey to need to change them for something a bit richer?

Thanks

BB
 
Just use the stock needles for an early MGB.
 
errr... H4's on an 1800 B engine or on a 1500?!?

If it's a B engine, there should be a "5" stamped in the shank of the needles and those are considered standard.
