Come to think of it...I'm pretty sure I have one of those transmissions left
over from converting an MGC to standard/overdrive transmission. I'm pretty
sure the bell housing mount is different from a Healey but if someone is
interested I could check it out.

Some B's came into the US w/autotrans and quite a few
MGC's in 1968+69. The auto MGC's sometimes get swapped
out for manual trans so you might find one of those
floating around or on ebay.                Best, JK
