“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:
The MGB used the 1800 for a long time, so there were codes to denote the differences between the engines, peculiar to MG;-
prefix bearings model market dates if known
18G 3 Mk1 GHN3/D3 all Oct 1962/April64
18GA 3 Mk1 GHN3/D3 all April 1964/Oct64

18GH* 5 Mk2 GHN5/D5 Europe Oct 1969/70
18GJ 5 Mk2 GHN5/D5 USA Oct 1969/70
18GK 5 Mk2 GHN5/D5 USA Oct 1970/71
18V** 5 Mk3 GHN5/D5 see below Oct 1971 onwards
* 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

Aria goes green, Abarth gets sporty, 500 goes large…
Fiat’s signature white stand featured both ends of the car spectrum: From the eco Panda Aria concept to a new even sportier version of the Grande Punto, the Abarth SS prototype. It arguably had the best show stand gimmick at Frankfurt too – a giant Fiat 500 model the size of a two-storey building housing a monorail on which punters could ride life-size 500 cars around its innards – entered through the giant 500’s wheel arch. Anyway… what about this eco Panda thingy…
Oh yes, the Fiat Aria ‘concept’ is subtle like that.
Ferrari has confirmed more details of the Enzo successor – the Ferrari F70 / F70 – in the Ferrari Magazine and their web site. As we’ve already reported today that the McLaren P1′s design is almost the same as the concept P1, we thought we should also report on the latest news on the McLaren’s biggest rival – the Ferrari F70 / F150 – now Ferrari has confirmed more detail. Most of what Ferrari has revealed on their web site (and in the latest edition of the Ferrari Magazine) has already been speculated upon, but now we know from the (prancing) horse’s mouth some of the technical details, as well as the look of the new Ferrari from the recent tease of the F70/F150.
Audi has revealed a teaser image and sketch of the forthcoming A5 Sportback, which is scheduled to make its debut at the Frankfurt motor show in September. Though the core design of the production car is similar to the Sportback show car unveiled at the NAIAS in Detroit at the start of this year, it will be smaller in size. Coined a 'five-door coupe' by the Ignolstadt-based automaker, the Sportback features a spoiler lip and a diffuser insert integrated into its elongated rear end.
