MG Car Repair: heatshield, aluminium spacers, mg td


Question
I saw in TTT2Issue13 that there is a heatshield for MG TD.
Mine is from 1953, and I want to know where these shields are available, where I can buy one.
Is it necessary to use the aluminium spacers.
The needed longer exhaust manifold studs can also be bought where?
I am living in Holland aand my car is an TD/26666 with XPAG TD2 motor

Answer
Hi Harry.  I can supply a heatshield for your TD.  It is made from 0.9mm thickness stainless steel and laser cut.  Yes, you need the aluminium spacers, which I also supply.  The manifold studs are 10x1.5mm metric, which you should be able to source in Holland.  I prefer to use 2 studs and 2 bolts.  Send me your details via the T Register website www.tregister.org.
