No, no, no!!!!
All Big Healeys and all MG's and all Sprites, Midgets, Triumphs. etc. all
used the same splines.
What did change for the Healeys and MG's at least was the thread pitch of
the knockoff cap thread.at about the same time in the mid '60's. They went
from the fine thread (12TPI) to coarse thread (8 TPI) at about the same time
in the mid '60's.
