New here, 1967 mgb awd project

[Chicu]

I have this 67 mgb roadster that i plan on building for a street cruiser that'll be setup for something like a mixture of a pro touring and a light rally car. The engine i have is a 2.4L honda Series that i plan on running without vtec since mine doesn't really have it and i don't really need it either, but i do plan on boosting it

But I'm mostly here for information on making adapters to put c5 suspension in it

First is definitely restoring the body

Oh! Fun project!

Oh! Fun project!

Thanks, I'm calling it my "winter roadster" since i want to drive it in the winter after i accidentally got the AWD transmission for it

Since my advice is being slammed, I'll remove it. I'd not want to clutter up someone else's thread. Good luck with the project.

Fortunately for me, unfortunately for you, it will be all wheel drive, dont feel like looking for another transmission
Not sure how worrying about fitting a 255 tire on all 4s is an issue if i can just get narrower wheels, 225's is enough for what i need
About the width, I've seen a couple forum threads talking about making narrower K members, and i didn't want the dobbertin because i feel the price is nearly predetory even when used, measurements/bluepirnts are better in my sense
Also not worried about the length difference
And about the engine, it is an aluminum block 4cyl, it's a 2.4L capable of making over 300hp on a set of stage 2 (street and race)camshafts with factory bottom end, ITB, and long tube headers at the factory10.5:1, higher compression builds with larger camshafts are known to make over 350whp. This is all naturally aspirated power too.
Mine will likely make less NA since i plan on running the factory intake just ported and I'm running 9.7:1, but with a turbo, it should make around 370-400whp at 7-10psi even on a factory bottom end since even though this is the weak k24, people have boosted them to around 550whp and daily drove them with "frequent abuse" in their accords. I'd say this is a decent motor for a light autocross/rally cross car. And even then, the k24 with the factory transmission is about 15lbs heavier than the MGB engine itself lol

I mean telling me that I'll need to figure out how to fit 255's on all 4 seems even more odd to me

Also worrying about the block material considering the factory rover 1.8 weighs as much as a ford 302 with iron heads also feels a bit weird
