[Healeys] BJ8 trans

[Bob Spidell]

Working from memory, and this diagram, there is a couple holes in the 
rear of the gearbox to level the fluid in the gearbox and O/D. They're 
above the 'floor' of the gearbox case, which is also slanted forward. 
I'm guessing there would be a cup or more of fluid left in the gearbox 
if you don't remove its plug.
