[Healeys] Lemans conversion

[Alan Seigrist]

My only comment on this is with the BN1 gearbox, you will run a risk of
breaking it with the additional power.  I broke my original BN1 box shortly
after I put the carbs on it (about 200 miles after the conversion).  Others
have been more lucky than me, so sometimes the BN1 box is fine.  But, I'd
suggest a BN2 box conversion to be safe, or Toyota conversion if you go
that route.
