The original steel ones are usually rusted out or hard to find in good 
useable condition. We have had the tunnels make new out or fiberglass. There 
are sprayed over an original tunnel so they are an exact copy of the 
original tunnel. We can have them made with or without the holes if you need 
one for a 5 speed conversion.

Subject: [Healeys] Transmission/Gearbox cover for a 100

Right now I am deep into the rebuild of my MGB engine, a rather fun 
Father/Son
project with my 16 year old.  I have been applying much thought to the 
slowly
moving 100 project.  Some of you may have seen my pondering on the British 
Car
Forum.  I am for sure going to keep the BN2 box in the 54.  It is part of 
the
cars history and I rather like the tales that surround this modification, 
done
back in the 60's.  The transmission/gearbox tunnel is a fiberglass home made
affair, done back in the 70's some time.  I know this because I can still 
read
some of the newsprint stuck on the inside.  I will probably replace this 
part
and seek out an original BN2 cover.   If anyone has one that they would be
interested in selling, please let me know.   (I am located in Illinois, not
far from St. Louis)

I am still debating in my mind if I should go back to the mechanical link
clutch mechanism.  Mine has been quite cleverly converted to hydraulic, 
using
the same type of master and slave as the brake system.  In the knowledge 
that
the mechanical parts are reproduced, I think I'll delay this decision until 
I
start to tear down and recondition this area.  So at least for now, the 
quest
is for the BN2 gear box cover.

Best wishes to all
