MG K3 Style Bucket Seats

Posted by stevebakermg on December 13, 2010 at 5:35 PM

I've had these seats made for a kit I'm piecing together for a client and thought they were worth sharing. I've tried to come up with a design similar to those found in the K3 racer, with the removable laced rear padding. They are in fact slightly wider, a "wide boy" style if you will, I'm of the opinion that drivers of the period were racing snakes by comparison to me, because I never seem to fit in the original seats (or many of the original cars for that matter). These will be available shortly in the online shop, made to order in any colour you fancy (providing we can find the cow) with a circa 2 week lead time to make them. 




Superchargers Available - Limited Stock

Posted by stevebakermg on May 17, 2010 at 6:09 AM

I now have two supercharger kits available, as per those described in the online shop. One polished and one not. Frankly they both look awesome.


I believe supercharging is the way to go if you're looking for power from your XPAG. A 1350 engine with a standard head can produce serious horse power when blown and saves the expense of a Leystall head and boring the engine. I'd also wager it's less likely to go wrong.


The kits are extremely simple to fit, having been factory designed for XPAG and come with all the relevant belts, fittings and pulley for 6 lbs boost (suited to fast road use). Higher boost set-ups will be available shortly. I will also have full technical specifications and be able to advise re: power-output. All technical data is being collated at the factory and under great scrutiny.


These will be +VAT in the future, imported to meet demand. It's a niche product but offers a straight forward and economical solution to building a race engine or a reliable fast road setup. 

Parts for Sale: MG T-Series; Eaton Superchargers

I’ve been advised that the supercharger kits will be available from mid April onwards. I am therefore taking firm enquiries from anyone who’s interested.

 

I will also offer a full polishing service for the superchargers. Please see pictures below of both polished and unpolished models. The online shop (above) has more information.

 

I will be taking kits to MG Silverstone in June and Beaulieu later in the year, so there will be plenty of opportunity for you to take a proper look.
