I don't think the blue color does mean a thing. Some Fot members, like Chuc=
k Gee, will know for sure.=20
The standard overdrive ratio's of the Triumph cars (TR, saloons and Stag) a=
re not very different. The ratio is often marked in the casing : something =
like 25 or 22, but none of the standard ratio's will improve the 3 O/D use =
that much : the power loss through the overdrive will not be compensated by=
 the better overall gearing, but it can come in handy sometimes to engage 3=
rd O/D for just a couple of seconds and then again go to 3rd=20

JK Jackson had that all figured out for a non overdrive box with the goal t=
