I was about to say the same thing ;-) I guess it depends on what you'll be doing with it??

Hi
its for my 1964 1071 s rebuild. ideally I I'm looking for a 190 box . I have been offered a couple of s gears to make a start on my 333 so hopefully can try and keep it as original as possible
cheers

If it is not going to be used hard I'd go for decent standard set up, plenty turn up on ebay thankfully, unless you have one in a corner somewhere perhaps?
