Good question. I have run a stock overdrive in my MGB vintage racer this
past season, probably 6 or 7 races and it seems to work great but I too
wonder. I put the switch on the gear shift lever and it sure works great.
What fun to be blasting down a straightaway flick the switch to go OD then
flick it back at the end to gear down for the next corner. I have sorely
abused mine and it seems fine so far.
