So two questions, is overdrive a significant improvement?
If it is, what would I expect to spend if I pieced it together myself instead
of getting the whole kit from John? Thanks
Darcy,
Overdrive in a TR6 if you do highway cruising at 65 MPH or higher is the
best thing since sliced bread. Once you have it you will never want to go
back.
On grey roads with twists and turns, hills and valleys, you can use the
column switch to go into OD from third gear avoiding the shift to fourth
keeping
the revs nice and constant which is very cool and lots of fun. It would be
false economy in my opinion not to convert to OD now with your gearbox on the
bench. Going back later will be more $ I bet. That being said I have no
opinion on the kit from John since I have not dealt with him.
Cheers,
Darrell
