[Healeys] Dave Dougan's overdrive part 2

I have also used MT90 and MTL in my BJ8 gearbox/overdrive.  Couldn't tell that
much difference in shifting between the two but I've decided to stay with the
MTL because of Nock's recommendation.  The MTL leaks a bit but I'm more
comfortable going with it as it has been recommended from their vast wealth of
experience.
