If the front suspension bar becomes loose, the engines will hold the bottom of the mgb from the front. Since it's not really designed to work that way, it will eventually separate.
I agree.
Gimbal bearings would feel extreme lateral load and fail. The inside of the transmission would be sprayed with chucks of metal as the gears start to inter-mesh. Epicyclic would jam-up not long after that.
