Mike Dowley at Sports & Vintage supplies a huge range of high quality new parts
for all the pre-war overhead camshaft MG’s, including the ‘M’ Type.  That means
that the majority of his ‘M’ Type spares are common to the OHC Minor.  In
particular, he can supply virtually any component for the engine, including new
cranks, rods and camshafts with sensible valve timing.  For normal road use, go
for the 12/12 cam – for racing, go for the ‘C’ Type cam (and fit a new crank at the
same time!).
