[ROVERNET - UK] (no subject)

But will the complete gearbox with overdrive from a 95 fit the back of a
90 engine? Clearly the engines were similar but also different. Paul says
he has known it done but IF the 95 was NEVER fitted with an overdrive gearbox
as standard then I guess the question is where did the gearbox in this particular
95 originate? I may try and get serial numbers, perhaps that may shed some
light but clearly a conflict of opinion as to wether a 95 EVER had an overdrive
box as standard.
