Hi Bernard
Both types of gearbox used in Austin Healeys were adaptations of the
standard Austin (BN1) or BMC boxes of the day. The BN2 - BJ8 box, which
were all variations of the same design, was as I recall designated the
"C" type box and was used in all the larger cars built by BMC.

Hello,
Did Austin Healey build its own gearboxes or, as it was usual in Britain

in those times, were they "generic" GBs used on other cars?
