Has anyone ever gone so far as to swap the entire SD1 driveline (3.5L/LT77 5sp/differential) into an MGB (77RB). I'm considering the ClassicConversion 4-link set-up for the rear and transplanting the Princess calipers/hubs onto the stock front crossmember.

That's how the whole thing started Sal. Done many times. Some tunnel mods needed to clear the transmission , but a pretty easy swap. Check the newsletter archives for articles on just how to do it.
