Here what the Bentley's manual has:
RATIOS
Gearbox Overall
Top w/OD 0.82 3.03
Fourth 1.00 3.70
Third 1.325 4.90
Second 2.00 7.40
First 3.38 12.50
Reverse 4.28 15.80
I suspect that the 'Overall' number is dictated by the diff ratio, either
3.7 or 4.1 W/OD installed

Subject: [TR] TR3 Gear Ratios
Anybody out there know what the gear ratios for a TR3 were?
Considering a T5 swap (over the Toyota) and want to insure that the
performance is close (or improved).
Also - anybody want to weigh in on a rack and pinion conversion? The kits
seem a bit overpriced, and I'm pretty handy, so I'm curious as to what
others have done.
Just sold my big healey and want to make my TR3 into a more comfortable
touring car.
