The car number plate was missing when I bought this MG and the DMV assigned a replacement tag which they installed on the door pillar. So I came here to MGE and the question comes up, what is the car number? DMV changed it. So where can I find the original number? In the MG forum a member posted an undocumented location for a chassis number stamp. The passenger side (this is LHD)frame rail aft of the motor mount bears a faint stamp of the car number.

123+ Bluetooth Distributor

Posted on: Wednesday February 26, 2025

I had a Mallory dual point from days the engine was normally aspirated. With the Moss supercharger it ran very well but the Mallory kept destroying condensers. After installing 123\TUNE+-4-R-V-G I used Denis' curve for the SC. With a proper curve and electronics the improvement was amazing. The iPhone app has Bluetooth controls and gauge displays. It stores files of your curves for later use. "Main features: REV-counter, Antitheft system by a PIN code, Real time tuning, Vacuum advance, Boost...

Cold Air Intake For Moss Supercharger

Posted on: Monday June 30, 2008

intake3

I haven't found any simple options for a cold air intake with the Moss supercharger. I considered a hood scoop or louvers until this idea came about. The SU is against the firewall with little clearance for an intake tube. I've seen pictures of intake pipes routed behind the engine to the right front side through the radiator shroud OR the pedal box could be cut for clearance to the left side but I decided to try a more direct route. Using the supplied air filter plate, a plenum was...

Supercharging The 3 Main MGB

Posted on: Thursday December 27, 2007

Serpentine pump pulley

I got tired of waiting for Moss Motors to develop a supercharger package for the MK1 3-main MGB so I explored the options. Moss says they haven't produced a supercharger for for the 3-main engine because it has a unique water pump which would be too expensive to adapt to a serpentine pulley for such a limited production. However it is possible to install the (150-058) SC for the '65-'67 MGB with the supplied pump (and the provided serpentine pulley) with some modifications. The down side is...

Lost VIN Tag
