Personally I enjoy having to be careful shifting into first with no syncho or rolling and staying in second. I like the originality of having to place each shift exactly right. Yes, it's quirky but i

If you don't mind me saying, the question is ill-put. You don't actually say what you want the gearbox to provide (other than gears! and what the power output is like from your engine. You don't say

My car is still running the original trans and overdrive, both in excellent operating condition. I love the vintage experience (which is why I own a Healey in the first place) and wouldn't even consi

Hey Dean. Glad to hear you are pleased with the Supra box. I understand the ratios on those boxes are quite close together. The box from a pick-up has wider spacings. My question - does the torque of
