| Where 
              can I get an MGBGTV8 gearbox reconditioned?Tina 
              Elias posted a note on the V8BB in February 2005 saying "I 
              have recently obtained a spare original V8 overdrive gearbox which 
              I intend to get reconditioned in advance of my own gearbox failing. 
              Can anyone suggest a good firm to undertake the work, preferably 
              in the south of England and ideally in the Surrey - Hampshire region?"

              "I can also recommend Heathrow Transmissions as I had my gearbox 
              overhauled there a few years ago and have covered several thousand 
              miles trouble free miles since".

    It is worth getting 
              a V8 gearbox and overdrive overhauled or rebuilt by a specialist 
              to make sure it is set up correctly 
              
              Any member 
              who has had a V8 gearbox reconditioned and feels able to recommend 
              the specialist, please let the V8 Registrar know so details can 
              be posted on this webpage for the benefit of fellow members. |
