“Per Gary, fellow eBayer: The engine is not a 3 main engine as there is no tach drive on the intake manifold side. The engine number is a 18GH not 18G. 18 GH was used in MGBs from Oct 1968 until Aug 1970. The gearbox is a standard 4 sync gearbox not the 3 sync box used on early cars.Gary”

I thought this was a 3 main bearing engine, see picture #3 I Was Informed By A Fellow eBayer:

I Purchased This Engine Serial #18GH WE-H 39229 And Transmission From A Gentleman Who Restored A MGA And A Early MGB He Bought This As A Spare From A Neighbor It Has Always Been Stored Inside He Was Told That It Ran When It Was Originally Removed *** It Has Not Been Started Or Tested *** *** It Does Turn Easily By Hand *** Now Based On The 18G "H" It Should Be Correct For A Early MGB October 1968 to August Of 1970
??? I Am Not Sure If This Is Correct ???
See Below:

* After 18GH there were extra letters after the prefix, 'U' still meant central gearchange; 'RU' now meant overdrive; 'We' all synchromesh gearbox; 'RWe' all synchro with overdrive; 'Rc' automatic gearbox.
There Is A "H" Stamped By Hand On The Engine Plate See Picture #3 I Do Not Believe It Is Part Of The Prefix From The Factory As You Can See It Has A Later Head Installed With The Fresh Air Pump Ports (Large Bolts) See Pictures #2 & #11

The 2014 Alfa Romeo 4C will serve as the official safety car at the 2013 World Superbike Championship, which will be taking place at Silverstone this weekend. The last time Alfa Romeo fans got a glimpse of the 4C was just a couple weeks ago at the Goodwood Festival of Speed , but at Silverstone the car will be wearing a stylish white matte livery with red, white, and green colors from the Italian flag on its roof and hood. Alfa Romeo is no stranger to the world of bike racing, having sponsored a number of events in the past.
The three generations of the BMW X5 meet
The new BMW X5 has just been revealed, and it follows the formula of its predecessors to deliver a new X5 that has more of everything previous X5s offered – performance, economy, space, practicality and luxury. BMW like to call the X5 an ‘SAV’ (Sports Activity vehicle) to differentiate it from real SUVs; although the X5 has four-wheel drive it’s not really a mud-plugger like a Land Rover, but more a 5-Series on stilts. But it’s a successful formula that started with the first generation X5 (E53) in 1999.
When engineers at Cadillac built the ATS sedan, they knew that they were competing with some of the best products on the market, such as the BMW 3-series, the Audi A4 and the Mercedes-Benz C-Class. They paid special attention to curb weight to help meet their performance goals. “We designed and engineered the ATS's vehicle architecture to deliver quick, nimble and fun-to-drive dynamics,” said David Masch, ATS chief engineer.
