I have plenty of time and mechanical ability and two v-6 Fords and two
5-speed trans. I do not have any 1725's or Alpine trans. I if I did I would
still do the v--6. British autos have great designs but poor electrical and
drive trains. I drive everything that I build many miles at freeway speeds.
I do not abuse the engines or transmissions. Of all the British autos that I
have none would stand up to the heavy miles without major problems. Thanks
for the help. TC
