Hi!
Do anyone know of a suitable 5 speed gearbox which one could drop into the 
Elan. I would like to have a overdrive fifth, and keep the acceleration 
from lower speed. The original Lotus 5 speed box which was used in the +2 
and the last 5 Elans(or so), seems to be to fragile and to rare(and 
expensive).
Any ideas?
