I am fairly certain there is another cover that installs between the fixed =
bulkead over the bellhousing and the main trans. cover. Similar to what I h=

Subject: Re: [Healeys] Fwd: Side shift trans covers
I have a fiberglass tunnel cover from BCS for my BN2. Of course, the BN2 i=

w to assemble the front of the tunnel to the front bulkhead. As it looks, =
the tunnel cover is too short to reach the front bulkhead if it is to also =
contact the sheet metal of the permanent rear tunnel cover between the seat=
s. I have the sheet metal front tunnel cover that screws into the floor an=
d the front bulkhead, but the screws are not available from Moss. I suppos=
e some generic sheet metal screws would work, but what size? I can get she=
et rubber from someplace like Grainger's but I have no idea how it was fast=
ened to the bulkhead cover. It looks like there was a square strip of insu=
lation that glues to the top of the cover where it contacts the front bulkh=
ead, but of course that is not available from Moss also. There are no seal=
kits for the trans tunnel cover for BN1 or BN2 from Moss. Why is that? I=
am at a loss how all this goes together. What have you 4 cylinder guys do=

Hi Tim. Not much help with your specific question as I did my BN7 tunnel wo=
rk 25 years ago and no longer own the car. However, one thing I wish I woul=
d have done is to really re-engineer the way the tunnel and bulkhead pieces=
fit together, and made strong fasteners that could pull the seal tight and=
prevent the heat from flowing into the cockpit. If only --- I think it w=
ould have been simple enough to do before the engine was in the car but I j=
ust didn=E2=80=99t remember and appreciate what a bodge it really was as or=
iginal. If you do that and pull it up tight you may be able to better judg=
e whether your shifter will function properly. Jim From: Healeys [mailto:h=
