Bob,
I had this arrangement for about 30K miles. The OD was built by ORS in England
with the 128% OD and a 1 ?? accumulator. With 165R15 Vredesteins 70 MPH was
2,700 RPM. Last year the OD started acting up. This was my third attempt at
getting a reliable OD so I put in the Healey 5 Speed. The proper non-turbo
Supra 5 speed has a 5th gear ratio of .783, which is precisely the same as the
128% OD. I now have the same high end gearing, but with a lot more
reliability. If a car is to be driven a lot and for long tips, it is the way to
go.
