[Fot] TR6 J-Type Gearbox in TR4?

[Marcel Van Mulders]

Steve,
With an A-type or J-type overdrive gearbox, you can mount a 1:4.33 or better
still, a 1:4.55 rear axle : acceleration is much improved and on most
circuits, the overdrive has to be engaged 1x or 2x a lap. It really shows in
laptimes.

I'm sure this has been discussed many times before but I was always looking
for an A-Type not a J-Type.  I know it will require different rear mounts.

Today a guy dropped off a ton of TR6 parts he didn't want anymore and one
was a TR6 gearbox with the J-Type overdrive.

I've thought about wanting overdrive in my TR4 racecars to keep the revs
down a little more at Road America but is this a good idea?

My car seemed very competitive as it sits now and maybe it isn't worth the
trouble, or at least not the gearbox I would want.
