Digging through my archives (stuff I never got around to throwing away) I found this low budget (hand typed) guidebook for converting the BPOR into an MGB.  Anyone here ever heard of the 'MGB-Plus' folks out of Vancouver, Wash.?

So, how about a book report, Jim? ;)

Here's a HIWD by a guy who was using your guidebook:

MG guys in Portland OR would probably know about this company.

I bought that book also back in about '91 (still have it). Not a bad effort for what it cost I suppose but it was a bit short on some of the details. Obviously it is not up to date for today. I believe the cost was about $20. The author had a SBC conversion which he sent me a couple of snapshots of.
