RE: 3000 trans

["Don" <don@anglesey.us>]

The beauty of the original is in its little idiosyncrasies and it is a
part of what makes the car a Healey.  If I happened to be looking at an
upgrade I would check out the Cape 5-speed as an alternative and keep
the original if I ever did change it out.  Remember that you are
comparing 1960 & 2005 technology and it really all comes down to what
you want.  I would choose to keep the original.
