transmission tunnel size

Post by minitravellerman »

Just a quick query if you could clear up for me.

Is the transmission tunnel in a Mk1 850 smaller or the same size as the transmission tunnel in a Mk1 1275 S?

I'm looking to fit full S running gear into my '62 including S exhaust etc and want to make sure it'll all fit as per an S.

Yes. Spank the exhaust and short out the floor start. Done that, boiled a battery. :shock:
