Morning,
I need some help and suggestions, I am a new memebr and haven't hobbied with British cars since the early 80's, so my knowledge base is very outdated. I have purchased a 1972 Spitfire that has been an SCCA race car since the early 80's. The tranny is stock and is shot. I need some suggestions and direction on what is available and what you folks have used to replace the stock trans and what holds up the best. I have found some vendors that use TR7 internals in a stock Spitfire case, as well as 5 speed conversions using a Sierra Type 9 Ford tranny. The 5 speed sounds interesting, pricy though and doesn't come with close ratio gears that are very beneficial for racing purposes. The TR7 conversion is supposed to be very strong as compared to stock and does have close ratio gears and is a lot less money too!
Anyway I need to know whatever is available and hear from some of you that may have already done the research and done it the wrong way already, hopefully it will save me making the same mistakes etc!
