Joe,
You might try John Espesito at Quantum Mechanics in Monroe, Ct. He rebuilds
transmissions and usually has a pretty good inventory or he can rebuild your
own. I have one of his overdrive tranis in my 67 MGB and it has been giving
me good service. John's number is 203-459-9612. 

Good luck,
Phil
