Hi I consider installing an overdrive in my Spitfire Mk3 to lower the noise at highway speeds. One manual I have tell that I have to move the gearbox/engine to install the overdrive, another says I don't, which is true?. I believe I have to exchange the main shaft with a 'frictionless' type whatever that means. Are these OD units mechanicly stable or am I asking for trouble installing one? I've read that one some models the switch is on the gearknob, while on others it is installed with the other contacts, I believe that it is most convenient to have it on the gearknob. I appreciate any help, I am still a black hole for spitfire wisdom Thanks, Peter |
