I use a 4:88 in my MGA and have used a 5.13 in the TVR for hillclimbs.Sure
don't need first once you get started, but OD still gives around a 130 mph top
end, more than enough for local tracks that you only need about 120 mph for.

The 5.13 (5.125, really) `is getting hard to find - only came in early Morris
Awkward and Austin Garbage wagons.
