Thank you! The B sat in the garage from August 1991 until we decided to rebuild it and put it back on the road...no one wanted it as aproject despite all the new bits sitting, waiting to go on...GT V8 coil springs, sway bar & bushes, rebuilt front dampers and calipers...people only wanted to get a bit here or there for 10 cents on the dollar.
On break-in test drive, it cruised at 80 mph in 5th...turning 1,950 rpm.
Anyway, Summit Racing has the intake manifold gasket sets I need...so ordered 2 sets.

Found the issue with the Buick V6's Offenhauser intake...wrong manifold gasket...didn't match the intake ports...hence VAC leak.
Now to find the gaskets (non-valley type) so the MGB Roadster with Camaro T-5 can go on to a new owner!
So many good things here...fresh paint after timely steel repair, new...well almost everything from fuel filler neck forward to new Holley carb, new brake/clutch hydraulics, new battery/alternator, new soft top, new carpets, new door cards, new Nokian tires on new 15" Minilite wheels...a great touring car.
Hopefully will be gone by August 27th.
