BMC B-Series Tuning

Considering the abundance of parts available and the various makes/marques this unit has ended up in over the years, I'm curious about what are the alternatives for getting more power from the 1500cc(ish) B series engines these days and what sort of figures people are getting.

Aside from the obvious which would be replace block/head with the 1800...maybe I've answered my own question

Speaking mainly of road going cars so keeping some reliability in mind.

Are the period BMC Comps Manuals essentially still the benchmark today or have there been much further developments?
