While changing the BN1 rear mount from a 3 speed to a 4 speed uses the same
cross member as later cars, it is in a slightly different position for the 4
cylinder than it is for the 6. It is back about 1/2 inch. I bolted the
overdrive on to the drive shaft without the transmission to get the correct
position before welding it into place.

Isn't the rear trans mount bracket welded across the "V" at the rear of the
opening in the floor different on the BN2 body?

George,
I don?t believe a 4 speed from a later model Healey will fit a BN 1 without
relocating the mounting points and changing the gear box covers. The carpets
will need to be modified.
