I have six (6) late model MGB overdrive tranmissions for sale: three (3) for chrome bumper cars 1968-1974 and three (3) for rubber bumper cars 1974 ½-1980. The transmissions were purchased from Andy Jenning’s Spares (www.mgcars.org.uk/andyjennings) an English salvage yard located near Southampton. The transmissions have been bench tested and run on a dynometer to check theoverdrive by Man=Trans (www.manual-transmissions.com), one of the leading re-manufacturers of manual transmissions and transfer cases in the United States. Man-Trans is located in Tallahassee, Florida. I have recently installed an overdrive transmission in my 1971 MGB and am exceedingly pleased with it.
