I was browsing FB posts on MGBs and ran across a fellow who stated that he had put a Z five speed in his MGB with a Rivergate conversion kit. Has anyone done that? I lost the thread and am still looking for it so I can ask him about it. If it could be done, I'm interested since I have a friend with an extra Z transmission. I have a '77 B.

Thanks,'

Has to be a ZX version which is 5 speed. Rivergate is still in business I think but the problem is not many kits have been sold in the last few years as the supply of transmissions has dried up. He runs the business now as a sideline if he is still doing it. HVDA kits for Triumph are no longer available for the same reason. Bruce
 
I spoke to the guy not too long ago on another matter, and he's still making the kits, but that's all he does. No other involvement in the car scene, no installations, etc.
