 Hi Dan

Your set-up looks great.

I used the ford throwout bearing with the healey forks [grounded the pivot points]

so I didn't have to machine transmission and with the unit bolded toghther the

pivot pin location was marked and an aluminum spigot was welded to the bellhousing

that was threaded for the pivot post so the height was the same as stock.

I didn't want any lock nut or adjustment that could cause problems later.

Using a modified 4-speed bellhousing allowed me to use the stock clutch

cable bracket and return spring.

But your shifter location and gear ratios will be better than the 4 cylinder tranny.
