MGB doors and windscreen - I wonder how much more MGB is under the skin.  Any Rover 3.5L or larger V8 and SD-1 5-sp manual trans is a direct fit into any post-1974 bodyshell.  It is possible to shovel a Ford 302 or Chevy 305 into the engine compartment of a "B" without too much modification.  A local M.G.C.C. member has a GT with a 400+ hp Chevy under the hood!
