Probably is. Pretty crappy automatic, all things considered. I had one in my
420 Jaguar. Took a lot of fiddling to keep it working well. I yanked it out
and took it to a automatic transmission specialist and he turned his nose up
at it. I guess in the interest of originality you might want to use one, but
there are a lot of nicer choices.

Seems to me it's a Borg-Warner 35, also used in some Ramblers (I think) and
a bunch of other Brit cars.

I have the AC installation instructions. I'll be happy to copy and send for
cost of copying and Priority Mail. About 6-7 bucks total.

I started last weekend (again) to finish my TR6 automatic conversion.
I've found a complete A/C set, so with auto and A/C I hope I will be able to
enjoy this toy again.

Two questions :
- Someone told me some time ago that Triumph World magazine did an article
on a similar conversion.
Does any of you has info on what issue that was ?
The publisher does not seems to like email questions.

- Does anyone knows of a transmission for sale as used in the Triumph 2500
4door sedan ?
A local older gentleman (80+) found out about my conversion and asked if
these transmissions can be found in the US.

Regards,
fredd
