Try contacting Rob Burston on 01823400128. Based in Taunton but has about 120 classic Jaguars he is breaking. Difficult to get hold of but I am sure he will have what you want.

Just remember for a 67 you are looking for a Laycock de Normanville "Compact" Type A overdrive unit.

If you had an early car with a Moss gearbox you would be looking for a "long tail" overdrive.

Both are the same ratio 0.77 to 1

The log tail uses a shorter propshaft IIRC.
